Jan 30, 2015 Sink or Swim: Designing for a Sea Change
Last week, some of the Imprint team got to visit the Annenberg Space for Photography in Century City, to check out the current exhibition “Sink or Swim: Designing for a Sea Change.” It looks at the global problem of rising sea levels, looking at the increased impact of natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, several recent typhoons in the Philippines, Japan’s Tōhoku earthquake & tsunami disaster, and what it all means for low-lying parts of the world like The Netherlands, Bangladesh, and us here in California. Not just doom and gloom, the exhibition also features some novel solutions, from Holland to Nigeria, and even features some work by Architecture for Dogs contributing architects Shigeru Ban and Sou Fujimoto. I think we’d all agree it’s well worth checking out for yourself.
