Building Data

You can now download the proceedings of Building Data, the 9th conference of the Jaap Bakema Study Centre.

21 December 2022

The focus of the 9th conference of the Jaap Bakema Study Centre is on the vast amount of data that is generated and stored, and how to view this overload in light of new possibilities for architectural design and construction, archival and heritage practices, knowledge curation and circulation through storytelling. The keynote by Georg Vrachliotis will consider the role of open data in design and social change, drawing inspiration from the Bouwcentrum Rotterdam, which was founded in 1948 as a statistics office documenting war damage in the city.
