Renhui Forum | Billie Tsien:Thinking about Design

2021年,是我国著名建筑学家和建筑教育家,东南大学建筑学科创立的一代宗师杨廷宝先生诞辰120周年。杨廷宝先生,字仁辉为传承和光扬先生的学术精神,自2021年起,东南大学建筑学院开设“仁辉讲堂”,长期延请国内外著名学者、建筑师举办讲座,弘扬学术,激励后学,推动中国建筑和建筑教育事业的蓬勃发展。
本期为仁辉讲堂为第二十二讲,由国际知名建筑师、耶鲁大学查尔斯·格瓦斯梅实践教授、美国艺术委员会主席钱以佳(Billie Tsien)主讲,采取线上线下同步直播的方式开展。
The year 2021 marks the 120th anniversary of the birth of Prof. Yang Tingbao, the greatest architect of the 20th century in China and a renowned educator who, along with others, laid the foundation for the architecture program of Southeast University. In Chinese tradition, Prof. Yang Tingbao is also known as Renhui, which serves as his alternative given name. To continue and carry forward his academic spirit, the School of Architecture of Southeast University found a Forum named after Renhui in 2021,which allows for repeatedly inviting renowned scholars and architects from China and abroad to share their ideas and expertise with younger generations, enriching academic life and contributing to the development of architectural practice and education in China. 
The upcoming lecture is the 22nd of the Renhui Forum and will be delivered by world-class architect Billie Tsien from New York, who also holds the Charles Gwathmey Practice Professorship of Yale University and serves as the Chair of the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts. The lecture will be held both at the venue and via livestream.

思考设计

Thinking about Design


 主讲人:钱以佳

(Billie Tsien)

The lecture will focus on how a design develops, using the process of developing the TCS Campus in Mumbai. Much like a new student in architecture we were dropped into a culture about which we knew virtually nothing and struggled to understand both the place and the people. This was all in an effort to eventually craft a campus design that felt as if it belonged in India.


本次讲座将以孟买TCS校园的设计过程为例,关注如何生成并发展一项设计。项目之初,我们就像建筑学新生一样,被投入到一个几乎一无所知的文化之中,试图去理解场地与当地的人们。诸般努力都是为了最终能设计出一个扎根于印度的校园。
