In focus - the in focus series represents the world around's traveling programs, designed to bring targeted and thematic discussions to new audiences across the globe. In 2023, we organized an impactful in focus event in milan centered on the theme of "radical repair," exploring innovative approaches to sustainable design and environmental restoration. This program convened leading experts and creative thinkers to share insights on addressing ecological challenges through bold, regenerative practices. The event was broadcast worldwide and archived on our website and online channels, making it accessible to a broad audience and extending its reach beyond physical attendees. The in focus series underscores the world around's commitment to fostering in-depth, global conversations on critical topics in architecture and design, ensuring that these dialogues contribute to a collective understanding and action toward a more sustainable future.
