Fast Forward Lecture Series 2012

Generously supported by GIB

Fast Forward is an annual lecture series hosted by NICAI's School of Architecture and Planning. The lectures present the recent and current work of leading practitioners in the fields of architecture, planning and urban design, including those working at national and international levels. This coming series includes lectures by two internationally renowned architects, as well as sessions focussing on the Auckland Supercity. The School believes that presenting the work and concerns of leading practitioners is crucial in supporting the ongoing debate, discussion and development in the fields of architecture and planning.

The 2012 lectures are the fifth Fast Forward series, with six lectures taking place during July and August.
