It has been 10 years since the great earthquake caused tsunami and Fukushima’s nuclear crisis.
This event will be a response to the “Global PechaKucha Night- Inspire Japan” event in 2011 and “IPPO X 365” events that archiPicnic successfully organized in 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015.
What has happened since then? Where are we now? In the tenth year of ongoing Japan’s recovery, how have designers, architects, and local governments been able to address the massive damage in the cities, villages, and buildings? Each day has been a step towards recovery and rebuilding — what were these 365×10 steps like in Japan? What can New Yorkers learn from them?
