“We live in the era of hate and, us architects, we should make people run away from it. The age of fear makes people seek closed places, walk in malls. But the street is ours! We need to enter this era of going to the street, experience outdoors. Architecture should think about empathy. Our projects need to think about the community”, froze Guto Requena.The second guest was Fernando Forte, office architect FGMF, presents the signed project for the stand of Eliane at Revestir. The talk also had mediation by the journalist Regina Galvão.

“When we created Eliane's stand, we wanted to get out of the ordinary. That when leaving Revestir, people remember the stand Eliane. It was a great learning. A project of 5 months, mounted on 5 days and which is open 4 days. That was pretty challenging, because we usually make buildings or constructions that last for years.”, highlighted Fernando Forte.“The most incredible thing is that you brought combinations and different possibilities of using the products.”, reinforced Regina Galvão.On the third day, the voice of the time was the architect Lara Kaiser, from office Perkins & Will , who spoke about the influence of women in architecture.

But little by little we learned together and each time more women have conquered their space.”, highlighted Lara Kaiser.the designer Stephen Toledo closed the week of talks with the theme Authorial Design.
