Internationally Renowned Urban Strategist and Thought Provoking Architect Coming to New Zealand
The Design Experience Series hosted by Construction Marketing Services is proud to be bringing Timothy Swanson, LEED AP of CannonDesign, Chicago to New Zealand for a thought provoking discussion series on urban planning - highlighting how the interconnectivity of design and strategy influence socioeconomic conditions.
At the DESIGN EXPERIENCE SERIES, Tim will host an exclusive seminar on ‘The Interconnectivity of Design - what the developed and undeveloped world can learn from each other,’ introducing ideas that ignite positive momentum, but still keep the goal of creating valuable places for people front and centre.
His discussion will provide a global insight into how design systematically catalyses impactful change place-by-place, person-by-person through coming together, resulting in change for the better.
“We’re thrilled that Tim is bringing his immense knowledge to the DESIGN EXPERIENCE SERIES when he visits Wellington, Tauranga and Auckland this October,” says Ian Watt, General Manager of organising company Construction Marketing Services.
“The DESIGN EXPERIENCE SERIES is about challenging and inspiring architects, architectural designers and interior designers to question the status quo when it comes to new projects, as well as showcasing the latest trends, products and services,” he said.
The youngest person ever to lead a CannonDesign office, Timothy guides and inspires over 200 architects, engineers, designers, planners and strategists with nonstop energy and passion to create breakthrough design solutions to enrich health, education, science and the community.
An advocate for smart growth, Tim has delivered successful solutions to cities, universities and institutions in locations as varied as rural India, New York, Chicago and the Middle East that have served to enrich their holistic environments.
“Tim brings with him an entirely unique, new global perspective, focussing on leveraging design to elevate the needs of people and their local communities.
He believes in sustainable development based on open and honest communication with leaders of urban planning, public health and education,” says Ian Watt.
“I encourage any architect, architectural designer or interior designer to come and hear, consider and discuss what Tim is presenting.
“As well as expanding your own horizons, the DESIGN EXPERIENCE SERIES offers a perfect opportunity to industry network, to see the latest developments in products and services and puts you ahead of future trends. See you there!” he said.
