LWK + PARTNERS Engages Future Architects at De Montfort University Dubai
At LWK + PARTNERS, we recognize that the future of architecture is shaped not only in design studios and construction sites but also in classrooms where young minds explore bold ideas. As part of our ongoing collaboration with academic institutions, our Global Design Principal, Kourosh Salehi, recently delivered an engaging lecture at De Montfort University Dubai—an institution known for its innovative approach to architecture and urbanism.
His talk on Vertical Cities and Urban Metabolism challenged students to reconsider how high-density environments can be designed to be more livable, sustainable, and adaptive. From passive cooling strategies to integrating smart infrastructure, Kourosh highlighted real-world case studies that demonstrated how urban design can enhance both human experience and environmental sustainability.
Our collaboration with De Montfort University Dubai is part of LWK + PARTNERS’ broader commitment to knowledge-sharing and mentorship, ensuring that the next generation of architects is equipped with the tools, insights, and global perspectives needed to shape the built environment.
A special thank you to DMU faculty for welcoming us. We look forward to continuing these meaningful engagements that bridge academic thought and industry practice.
