Emotional City Global Forum
5th Seoul Biennale of Architecture & Urbanism
September 2025
As strategic producer for the Emotional City Global Forum for the 5th Seoul Biennale of Architecture & Urbanism, I worked over six months to refine the roster of speakers, develop artistic commissions, and form panel discussions with international guests and Biennale participants.
For the conference, a group of 400 business leaders, creative champions, community organisers, neuroscientists and city planners will gather to spark an urgent global conversation about how cities get built. Through a mix of ground-breaking research, expert speakers, citizen-led projects and creative interventions, the event will explore the impact of the outside of buildings on our health and society; and how to create buildings that are loved and last, instead of being demolished and rebuilt.
The 5th Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism is led by Director Thomas Heatherwick.
