The document outlines the format and topics for a debate about architecture that will take place over two parts. Part 1 will discuss philosophical topics about the relationship between architecture, design, art, science, engineering, function, and space/time. Each topic will have two teams, one arguing the "PRO" position and one arguing "AGAINST". Part 2 will debate topics specific to the city of Doha, Qatar, such as whether it needs more iconic or tall buildings, signature architects, sustainable designs, and branding. The audience will judge the winning team for each debate by clapping.
