PKAKL58: "20x20 Vision"

8 July 2020

PKAKL58 was a tale of two halves… originally scheduled for the week before lockdown, the event was postponed and returned in July. We kicked off by celebrating the year of the 20x20 format, and ended up being the first physical PechaKucha night anywhere in the world after the wave of global shutdowns. We featured a stellar cast of photography, architecture, art and thinking. We were joined by a Kiwi designer smashing it in Copenhagen, enjoyed some words from Tokyo HQ, and closed the night with Roman Mars’ reading of “250 Things an Architect Should Know”, in memory of Michael Sorkin.
