• Exhibition Concept

  This special exhibition features five architecture groups that are set to lead the field in the future. They will present visions in response to Hiroshima Architecture Exhibition 2025’s overall theme of “Architecture: A New Stance for Tomorrow.” Contemporary architects are redefining architecture as something organic that resonates with our planet, rather than as something artificial that has been sought by modern society. Each of the five groups has developed proposals from the perspectives of the ocean, nature, citizenry, landscapes, and universe that explore new connections between the environment and society, and ask how architecture can help shape our future.
