Spring 2026 Guest Lecture Series | SADA (School of Art, Design and Architecture)
Designing Vertical Cities of Tomorrow
How do we build upward without losing the human scale?
As cities continue to densify, vertical urbanism is no longer a choice, but a necessity. This guest talk explores how high-rise architecture can respond to social, environmental, and cultural challenges while shaping future urban life.
Join us for an engaging session with Jamshaid Khan, Principal Architect at Jamshaid Khan Architects & Associates (JKA&A), as he shares insights from over a decade of practice in designing some of Pakistan’s most innovative contemporary buildings.
Through discourse and critical reflection, this talk invites students and professionals alike to rethink verticality, density, and the evolving public realm in South Asian cities.
