Architecture Connecting
Living Structures Published by Lars Müller Publishers.
Edited by Mette Marie Kallehauge, Lærke Rydal Jørgensen. Conversations with Jan Boelen, Hashim Sarkis, Jenny Sabin, Mette Ramsgaard, ecoLogicStudio, Mario Carpo. Three approaches to sustainable architecture—biodigital, bioregional and bioresponsive—from studios centered around biology and chemistry Marking the first in a new series of exhibitions, this project from the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art highlights three design studios with biochemistry and biology at the core of their practice. London-based ecoLogicStudio focuses on climate and carbon neutrality, and how photosynthesis can be incorporated into architecture. Atelier LUMA is the research design branch of LUMA Arles, mapping and identifying the local resources of the unique bioregion of Camargue to build its own studio. Finally, the Ithaca, New York–based Jenny Sabin Studio uses theory and knowledge from biology and mathematics to help develop new digital tools and structures that work in interaction with people and nature. This catalog highlights each firm’s most important projects alongside three conversations between the studio founders and an expert architectural critic.
