Focusing on forms of repair in the built environment, the Society for the Study of Architecture in Canada (SSAC)’s 49th Annual Conference will take an in-depth look at how care, restoration and redress projects can not only impact buildings, but users’ well-being too.

Among the presenters contributing to this topic are urban planner and designer Audrey Girard and landscape architect Patricia Lussier, who will discuss innovative design strategies transforming four-season built forms and landscapes, and architect Mark Chambers, who will present on the impactful value of conserving architecture in cities.
