That’s a Wrap for Housing and the People!

On 9 April, 2022, we visited 26 extraordinary homes in 18 major cities and spoke to 46 inspirational architects, civic leaders, curators, educators, artists, and residents across 8 time zones in 12 hours. We explored what makes housing a home and what lessons we can learn from bold designs across the world.

Thank you to all of our partners and collaborators who helped make the day possible in Barcelona, Basel, Brno, Colombo, Dublin, Hsinchu, Lagos, Lisbon, London, Melbourne, Montpelier, Mexico City, Morelos, New York, Oslo, Prague, Taipei, Valencia, Vienna and Vila Real de Santo António.
