Held in the Cinema Room of A4 Space, A New Architectural Utopia shares works by the students of the American University of Sharjah’s College of Architecture, Art and Design (CAAD). The architecture students used the Chateau de Chambord in France, believed to be influenced by Leonardo da Vinci, to imagine a utopia based on the environmental and ecological challenges faced by modern society. This collection is titled Ecotopos and includes drawings, models, videos and a compelling essay illustrating this world.

Enjoy a live reading of the essay on 3 August, which will be accompanied by a video and selected images from the show.
