Craig Dykers at 315 Linden

Since 1989, Craig Dykers has established offices in Norway, Egypt, England, and in the US. His interest in design as a promoter of social and physical well-being is supported by ongoing observation and development of an innovative design process. As a Founding Partner of Snøhetta, Dykers has led many of their prominent international projects, including the Alexandria Library in Egypt, the Norwegian National Opera and Ballet in Oslo, and the National September 11 Memorial Museum Pavilion in NYC. Craig is currently leading the design of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art Expansion in San Francisco and the new Times Square Reconstruction in New York City, both of which will be completed this year in 2016. Snøhetta has also recently been shortlisted as one of seven firms in consideration for the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago.

Craig's work has led to international awards and recognitions including the Mies van der Rohe European Union Prize for Architecture, the World Architecture Award, and the Aga Kahn Award for Architecture, among many others.

This is the second in a series of talks on the future of cities, led by inspiring thinkers, designers and artists.

The goal of these salon-like conversations is to spark new connections, inspire doers, and enjoy good food, wine and company.
