This week at department 10 we held a workshop lead by Philippe Rahm guest professor at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, School of Architecture.
He works currently in Paris and Lausanne. He has made numerous exhibitions around the world as well as teaching in universities in Switzerland, France and England. For more information check http://www.philipperahm.com/
Right now he is preparing a special exhibition in KARCH to be open during the UN COP 15 conference and he is currently part of Louisianas exhibition “The future of architecture is green”
At department 10; when we first heard that Rahm was coming to teach here we were eager to show our interest in getting a closer understanding of his outstanding work: Philippe Rahm challenges our understanding of spaces exploring the sensibility of human biology and physiology reaching far beyond visual perception. Thereby he shows us new ways to go, and he can inspire us to explore new territories of architecture remembering that ecological conscience architecture not only has a low co2 but can also provide humans with enjoyable and sensual spaces.
This is an interview I did whit him discussing the objectives of the workshop and the idea of the Atlas that the students will produce for the COP 15 exhibition.
