OFF '11
While SAIE is hosted in the exhibition centre, it is increasingly branching out into the city itself. In cooperation with the city of Bologna, the Province, IBC - Regione Emilia Romagna, the Order of Architects, the Order of Engineers, Urban Center Bologna and DAPT University of Bologna, SAIE is organising a calendar of events that will be held in various locations in the city and will complement and expand on the initiatives held in the exhibition centre from 5 to 8 October.
It is the perfect opportunity to enjoy the hospitality offered by the city of Bologna for a pleasant break after SAIE while continuing to explore building-related themes.
