"Designing public spaces" Linto Organisation, continuing the cycle of open-lectures/discussions and presentations, hosts the acclaimed and award-winning, Larisian, architect Theofanis Bobotis. It concerns a series of contacts and acquaintances with the work and philosophy of important artists and personalities, which aim to approach and educate on issues related to all of us and affect our daily lives.
The public space, whether outdoors or in the form of a building, has been one of the basic elements of civilization development. Markets, squares, churches, educational buildings, airports and museums are places where people of different ages, of different economic opportunities and perceptions, and of different educational backgrounds meet.
The concept of the public space has already been introduced in the design parameters of the first settlements as necessary to meet the social activities, through which social structures and culture have evolved.
The event will be hosted on the landscaped green Linto Rooftop, and it will be assisted by projected images/examples and projections, followed by a relaxed discussion and cocktail options. Participation in the speech is free, but the limited number of attendees requires making reservations as soon as possible.
