Pictures of the event
Together with you, we are touring the world to listen to the most celebrated architects of our time, share their unique paths and talk to them about their experiences and influences. It is one country, two world-renowned names, and their unique stories of becoming and being an architect at each event.
Originally planned as an online event, we are thrilled to announce the change to a physical event with livestream.
On Thursday, April 28th, 2022 live at 19:00 AEST we will visit Sydney and meet two of its most relevant architects at the Brickworks Design Studio Sydney. If you can’t make it live, save the link and watch it later!
The two following architects will talk about their personal experiences and important creative periods in their lives and, as always at “AnA“, none of their projects may be mentioned:
– Angelo Candalepas, Candalepas Associates, www.candalepas.com.au
– Richard Johnson, Johnson Pilton Walker, www.jpw.com.au
Doors open at 18:00 AEST.

At an unusually early age Richard was awarded an MBE, in 1977, for his work as architect on Okinawa Expo 75 in Japan.
