Comments

1. Great event, but they should just have translators for all of them, besides Sou Fujimoto
2. Interesting contrast and similarities between the older and younger generation... kids lol
3. When all the architects met around the table for discussion, it was nice to watch Ito and Sejima let their younger colleagues take center stage
