Fruitful meeting with Brazilian expert Pedro Morais

We had a rich one-hour conversation with Pedro Morais - architect and urban planner, professor at the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais, ex-architect of the INHOTIM Institute. The dialogue turned out to be incredibly productive: we discussed the key projects of 2025 and outlined the points of his expert participation.
Pedro impressed with his depth of knowledge and willingness to be actively involved in the work. In the near future, he will act as a curator and speaker for educational programmes, and will also be on the jury of our events. It is especially valuable that he not only shares his professional insights, but also helps to build international collaborations, for example, by involving Brazilian specialists in joint work.
One of the main results of the meeting was the decision to jointly develop an online format for the educational block of the ArchITESN 2025 campus, which will be held in Kazan from 1 to 5 July. Pedro appreciated the concept of ‘programmable urbanism’ and has already proposed several ideas for integrating digital tools into architectural practices. In addition, he promised to think about a list of organisations that could strengthen the expert component of the programme.
No less important was the discussion of the upcoming Space Workshop on 24-25 April in Moscow. A delegation of five people is planned from Pedro's university, and he himself has agreed to be a member of the jury.
This meeting once again confirmed how important personal contacts are in international work. Thanks to Pedro's openness and professionalism, we have new opportunities to develop dialogue between Russian and Brazilian specialists in architecture, urbanism and design.
Thank you Pedro for the inspiring conversation and willingness to co-operate! We are sure that his participation will give our projects a new impetus.
Stay tuned for more updates - there's a lot of exciting things to come!
