The inaugural forum of the Norman Foster Foundation, ‘Future is Now’, took place in Madrid’s Royal Theatre and brought together leading minds from the fields of architecture, urbanism, infrastructure, technology and the arts to discuss the ways in which designers and policy makers are addressing a future of social, economic and design challenges that are already here and deeply affecting how we interact with each other and our built environment.
