The Contemporary Chinese Architectural Forum (CCAF) was founded in 1984. It was previously known as the" Modern Chinese Architectural Creation Team". It is the largest non-official architecture academic community in China. We aim at the equality, democracy and sole academy. Through more than 20 years' operation and practice, the CCAF has promoted the prosperity and activated the atmosphere of Chinese architectural design. The CCAF aims at advancing Chinese architectural design and theory, and advocating academic democracy and freedom. There are more than 200 outstanding architects and theorists joining in the CCAF.
