Welcome to Hong Kong, where space is scarce, buildings are high and architects need to be at the top of their game to build our world for tomorrow. We are proud to host two extraordinary architects and Fellows of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) who will speak at the first session, of our second Virtual World Tour on Wednesday, October 13th, 2021 live at 18:30 HKT (Hong Kong time) / 12:30 CEST (Berlin time)!

With Moira Moser, owner and chairwoman of M Moser Associates, and William Lim, director of CL3 Architects, we are able to present to you two outstanding personalities, who have an amazing body of work. Amongst others, they are known for their works in designing interior office spaces, creating contemporary art installations and architecture. However, as always with Architects, not Architecture the works shall not be mentioned.

What we will hear about are the biographies, the events and the anecdotes that shaped the individuals and inspired them to take the paths they did.

Don’t hesitate and join us, when we get to know our two speakers:
