The event is free and open to the public. The colloquium will explore multiple approaches to historic preservation and case studies from around the world.

He also has won a number of design competitions and participated in groundbreaking planning studies ranging across monument, urban block rehabilitation and palace grounds projects. He has published widely and continues to offer consulting services to major restoration projects across Europe. Case studies will be presented by key Notre Dame School of Architecture faculty, including professors Richard Economakis, John Stamper and Krupali Uplekar.
