Architecture + the City Festival Presents Rising Towers: In Conversation with Piero Lissoni

Join Italian architect and designer, Piero Lissoni, for a panel discussion on the movement towards high-end residential towers and their impact on San Francisco and cities around the world. Lissoni and additional guest panelists will share their perspective on the architectural impact of towers not only on city skylines, but on culture, community and the future of how we live. In addition to his award-winning global architectural work, Lissoni is the art director for leading furniture manufacturers and kitchen designers including Boffi, DePadova, Living Divani and Porro. The evening event will be hosted at DZINE in San Francisco.

This program is part of the Architecture + the City festival on September 1-30. The festival explores and celebrates the varied facets of design, aiming to connect and inspire the general public, design enthusiasts, architects, and designers in a month-long celebration featuring behind the scenes events, tours, films, exhibitions, lectures, special events, and more providing unique opportunities to engage with the local architecture community and experience design in a myriad of ways throughout the city.
