Salon of Urban Architecture
September 2024
The Salon of Urban Architecture (S/UA) will be holding its eighth Salon with Simon Henley on Sunday 15 September in Florence, Italy.
Simon's talk, 'Association + Attunement', will explore the impact of climate and culture on how we design, build, dwell in, and react to our built environment. Buildings shape the city, its thoroughfares, precincts, passages, courts, and gardens, particularly through the porosity and permeability of the facade's surface. With each design, we ask how spatial morphology and facade configurations can engender the association of people and individual attunement to culture and climate.
The Salon of Urban Architecture (S/UA) is an umbrella for research, practice, and engagement with urbanism and urban architecture. It bring together practitioners, researchers, educators, students, and the general public around explorations of the interrelationship between architecture, the creation of public space, urban structure, and the systems that inform them.
