A morning focusing on the future of cities. The first edition of the international domusforum at the Teatro Parenti on 11 October 2018 is precisely that: a “forum”, a place of multidisciplinary and intercultural discussion on the present and future of cities. The Domus forum is a rendezvous and opportunity for philosophers, sociologists, urban designers as too design entrepreneurs, technology anthropologists and everything that makes a global city.  Domusforum will compare data, analyse trends and study the world’s dynamics with interventions by global protagonists. Works will begin with presentation of the results of a survey commissioned by Domus to Nielsen and conducted in Shanghai, São Paulo, Chicago, London and Milan.

Registration at 9 am.
