Proceedings of the 2nd International Congress on Ambiances

Canadian Centre for Architecture - Montreal 2012

The International Congress on Ambiances is held under the aegis of the International Ambiances Network. Organized every four years, the congress is one of the network’s main events, an international gathering for researchers, artists and professionals engaged in analyzing the ambiance-related dimensions of the built environment and in the sensory construction of the contemporary world.

Many approaches are at work in the field of architectural and urban ambiances, and these multiple contributions nurture its dynamic. The International Congress on Ambiances gives voice to this activity, exploring new forms of exchange between design and experience, between the measured and the qualified, the projected and the tested, the material and the immaterial.

Held for four days at the Canadian Centre for Architecture, in Montreal, from 19 to 22 September 2012, this second congress highlighted advances in learning and new hypotheses proposed by the various disciplines and fields of activity in the domain of ambiances.
