In his lecture, Simon Poulsen will discuss the future of buildings from a holistic perspective, drawing on experience from architectural designs based on a nuanced balance of material, tectonic, human scale, program, and understanding of context. A main focal point in ADEPTs work is the relation between a building and its urban environment. To do so, the office works continuously to design sustainable buildings that answers to programmatic needs through an open and flexible programming as well as encouraging social and urban synergy.
