Architectural Material Technology Commons (Conference) - Radical material responsibility through novel, regenerative, resilient, traditional (indigenous & vernacular) materials with contemporary tools and innovations; to revolutionize our approach to material responsibility in Architecture and Design
Professor R. Spencer Steenblik of phi architecture φ is organizing a groundbreaking conference exploring radical material responsibility in architecture through the lens of both traditional wisdom and contemporary innovation. The AMT2025 conference, to be at the iconic Republic Building in Columbus, Indiana, brings together practitioners, researchers, and industry leaders at the intersection of sustainable materials and architectural technology.
"Material Commons" investigates how novel, regenerative, resilient, indigenous, traditional, and vernacular materials can be reimagined through contemporary tools and innovations. This conference creates a unique platform for exploring sustainable practices that honor both our environmental future and our cultural heritage.
Join us with other headlining keynote speakers in Columbus as we explore how traditional wisdom and contemporary innovation can combine to create a more sustainable architectural future. Stay tuned for submission deadlines and registration details.
