Architalk: Seeing the World through Architecture
I-House boasts a building constructed under the collaboration of three prominent modern Japanese architects, and from its inauguration has been receiving guests and members from the field of architecture. To expand this network, I-House launched a new program in 2016, the tenth anniversary of the extensive renovation of the building, inviting speakers from Japan and abroad to think about contemporary issues through architecture.
I-House, which has engaged in various exchange activities with India and Indian nationals since its early stages, offers a set of Japan-India exchange programs, including a distinguished visitors’ program, a seminar series on India, and performing arts events.
