“Where does creativity originate? What is truly sustainable architecture? How is the path from the initial idea to the completion of the project carved out? Perhaps it ultimately starts from an emotion, or even sensations and impressions that connect our senses with the perception of space…”
The lecture examines the work of the Pieris.Architects office through competitions and realized projects, using the analogy of the well-known tale of the Grimm brothers published in 1812. Is there ultimately an evolutionary path towards a sustainable architectural expression? Can a space acquire timeless symbolic content beyond aesthetics?
