2:30 to 4:30pm
New Models for Better Living? features architects Chris Hardwicke (Sweeny Sterling Finlayson & Co. Architects) and Andy Thomson (Altius Architecture Inc. and Sustain Design), along with Oakville Planner Kirk Biggar. Their dialogue will be moderated by Lisa Rochon, architecture critic for the Globe and Mail.
Looking at models such as the velo-city project by Chris Hardwicke, Andy Thomson’s miniHome, as well as the concepts featured in the current Oakville Galleries exhibit, T&T: Onward Future, panellists will bridge utopian architectural models with the reality of suburban planning. Oakville aims to be "the most liveable town in Canada" -- could these models be a solution for the future of the town?
