In our second movie about the World Architecture Festival and Inside Festival, to be held at the Marina Bay Sands hotel (above) in Singapore this October, programme director Paul Finch describes the themes of the two coinciding events.

First up is the World Architecture Festival (WAF), a series of awards, talks and exhibitions with the title Value and Values. "What value does architecture provide socially, economically, psychologically, functionally, to clients and communities around the world?" asks Finch.

The biennial Inside Festival joins WAF in Singapore for the first time this year. The theme will be Keeping it Real, which Finch says will include "things like the virtues of augmented reality" within its exhibition and conference programme.

A student charrette will also feature in the event, where students from about eight schools around the world will look at the implications of ageing populations on architecture and design.

The World Architecture Festival and Inside Festival take place from 2 to 4 October at the Marina Bay Sands hotel and conference centre in Singapore.
