It may be the summer holidays for many in the Northern Hemisphere at least, but thousands of architects across the globe are already looking to October and one of the most highly anticipated dates in the professional calendar.
Moving across the water following its London 2012 debut, this year’s World Architecture Day will take place in New York between the 6th and 8th of October 2013.
Hosted by World Architecture News with the support of the American Institute of Architects New York Chapter (AIANY), WAD aims to bring together “the most illustrious architects, planners, engineers, developers and designers from all four corners of the globe to exchange ideas, showcase innovative, award-winning work and discuss new business ventures.”
