Tweet

Jakarta, 07/14/2022 – ARCH:ID Architecture Conference and Exhibition was officially held on Thursday (07/14/2022) at ICE BSD City, Tangerang, opened by the Minister of PUPR RI, Mr. Dr. Ir. H. Mochamad Basoeki Hadimoeljono, M.Sc., Ph.D. As the most anticipated architectural festival in Indonesia, this event will last until July 17, 2022.

ARCH:ID is an annual event organized by the Indonesian Architects Association (IAI) in strategic partnership with PT Citra Innovation Strategies (CIS) Exhibition. This year, Sebentang, Serentang, Segendang are the themes that reflect the diversity of architectural practices and products in Indonesia. This theme is the result of the thinking of 3 curators who are well-known architects from various regions, namely Ary Indra from Salatiga, Ramadhoni Dwipayana from Medan, and Hermawan Dasmanto from Surabaya.

“The theme this time, Sebentang – Serentang – Segendang, is to celebrate the differences and diversity of architectural practices in Indonesia. Several regions in Indonesia have the potential to be displayed. For this reason, ARCH:ID will present the West (Medan) and East (Makassar) Indonesian Pavilions so that the event is not centralized in Jakarta,” said Hermawan Dasmanto, Curator of ARCH:ID 2022.

“The ARCH:ID 2022 conference is unique and interesting.

COLLABORATIVE EXHIBITION WITH ARCHITECTS

The next main activity is a curated exhibition. The exhibitors (brands) were encouraged by the curator to collaborate with architects to design their booths and display product designs in different ways so that they would create a different atmosphere from similar activities. The exhibition layout is distinctive. The height of the booth creates a skyline and an architectural ambiance that is rich with design.
