Today i (Matt Gaskin, Head of the School of Architecture) am chairing the day at the Emirates Stadium, London for LEAF International.  The focus of the day is Specifying the Future of Architecture.

In the morning we have had presentations from Margot Orr of Atkins Global on building relationships with and excellent video on a master plan in Johannesburg. Christopher Chao of AECOM on flexibility with a exploration of the linkage between biology and urbanism as well as questions around global and local agendas.  Adam Preuss of va-Q-tec then talked on innovative VIP insulation - i am particularly interested in the work on Rosslyn Chapel!
