The 2018 TxA Design Conference —“Other Worlds, Chasing the Light and Other Mysteries” — will explore the visions of people outside the profession whose work presents enlightening feedback to architecture. We’ll hear from a lighting designer, a writer and an architectural photographer who offer unique perspectives on our place on planet earth and our relationship to the built environment. The Conference will be held on February 16-18 at Rice and in Houston’s Montrose neighborhood — a walkable district of bungalows, high-rises, chapels, museums, and art galleries. Join us as we peer into worlds others create, chasing the light and other mysteries.
