Mobility: Room with a View
1st International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam
Rotterdam will hosted the first International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam from
7 May - 7 July, 2003. The first Architecture Biennale focused entirely on the theme of mobility, examining the issue of modern-day mobility and the consequences for architecture and urban development. Architects, civil engineers, urban planners, traffic experts, landscape architects, students, filmmakers and photographers from around the world spent two months presenting plans and exchanging ideas in the form of exhibitions, lectures, publications, debates, films and excursions. The curator was Francine Houben, partner in the Mecanoo architecture firm and professor at Delft University of Technology.
