Meeting on Architecture and Public Space
Published: 15. september 2025
On 15 and 16 October 2025, we are organising a meeting in Brno with architects and representatives of the city of Hodonín. We will present current projects, ongoing constructions, and future stages of the city’s development. During the expert lectures, we will focus on public participation and current trends in urban planning, including a critical perspective on so‑called participation washing. The programme also includes presentations of student projects, among them a proposal for the renewal of the Hodonín railway station.
