About this event
One of the world’s greatest and most thoughtful architects joins us to discuss his new memoir, If Walls Could Speak, and recount his extraordinary career and the iconic structures he has built—from Habitat in Montreal to Marina Bay Sands in Singapore—and offer a manifesto for the role architecture should play in society. In conversation with Globe and Mail architecture critic, Alex Bozikovic.
Q&A and book signing to follow. Books available for purchase.
REMINDER! Tickets are only guaranteed until 10 minutes before the show starts, at which point we will start opening up available spots to the rush line. Seating is on a first come, first served basis so we recommend that you arrive early.
