This conference examines the relationship between time, modernity, and architecture, searching for traces of time. It aims to reflect on the connection between the built environment and the regulation of time, whether it is through obvious examples like clock towers or less obvious examples such as religious and industrial buildings. What is the connection between the regulation of time and modernity? How has the introduction of certain structures and typologies shifted our understanding of Time and how we quantify it.

What is a Timely architecture, or an architecture that is strongly connected to time, and what is a Timeless one? What are the ruptures that occur that challenge such an architecture? This year we examine the relationship between time, modernity, and architecture, searching for traces of time. We aim to reflect on the connection between the built environment and the regulation of time, whether it is through obvious examples like clock towers or less obvious examples such as religious and industrial buildings.

Join the next “modern conversation”: we examine the relationship between time, modernity, and architecture, searching for traces of time. We aim to reflect on the connection between the built environment and the regulation of time, whether through obvious examples like clock towers or less obvious ones such as religious and industrial buildings. What is the relationship between the regulation of time and modernity? How has the introduction of certain structures and typologies shifted our understanding of time and the way we quantify it? What constitutes architecture that is strongly connected to time, and what is truly timeless? What ruptures occur that challenge such architecture?
