"Bread&Heart" Festival/ The American architect shows the gift

Today, the International Architecture Festival “Bread & Heart” is being held in the heart of Tirana under the motto “Bring some salt, please”. This festival is organized by the Territorial Development Agency, under the direction of Adelajda Roka, Director General of ARD, and under the auspices of Prime Minister Edi Rama.

A historic event held in Tirana that has brought together the most renowned architects from around the world with the aim of exchanging inspiring ideas.

Also participating in the festival is American architect Steven Holl, winner of the “Expo Albania” project. During his speech, the architect also showed off a gift that Rama had given him, a tie designed by the prime minister himself.

Holl then spoke about his architecture office, its failures and support.

" I'm trying to understand what this moment in history is, looking at big projects like Mitterrand's project could have been, but he couldn't draw and paint like Edi Rama because even this tie is his work. Looking at the failures, I started thinking: We've done 130 competitions and won 1 in 5, but the office couldn't exist without such opportunities and support ," Holl said./ CNA
