The fifth and final part of VDF's collaboration with reSITE sees London architecture studio WallaceLiu discuss working in China and the West with MAAT executive director Beatrice Leanza in a talk moderated by Yoko Choy, editor of Wallpaper* China.

In this "East Meets West" talk from reSITE's REGENERATE conference, WallaceLiu's founders Jee Liu and Jamie Wallace join Yoko Choy and Beatrice Leanza to discuss how to build for the next generation, and how values are changing in the process of regeneration.

WallaceLiu was founded in 2014 and has designed a number of buildings in China, most recently the new Chongqing Industrial Museum, set among the structures of an old steel factory.

Before joining MAAT, Leanza was based in Beijing. She was the founder of The Global School, the first independent design institute to open in China, and served as creative director of Beijing Design Week from 2012 to 2016.

"China is a country that, when you work there, almost feels like the wild west in California, the gold-digging era, to start with," said Liu.
