The work of Katharina Knapkiewicz and Alexander Fickert is characterized by its absence of ideology and thus its relaxed treatment of

the inheritance of modernist housing typologies. It is not the neutral domesc space that is being oered in their work, but a form of

space that awakens the users undiscovered potenal for inhabitaon. At the centre of this work stands the imaginaon of a type of

architectural space in which, similar to the English landscape garden, a balance is sought between the percepon of the moving subject

and a subtle and highly dierenated geometric order.

Tom Heatherwick

Brish Pavilion on Shanghai EXPO 2010

Heatherwicks approach to architecture is unusual, as on the one hand craed materials are emphasized, while on the other hand

prototyping and producon processes are valued. Beyond this, Heatherwick evidently has the gi of enthusing people and the ability to

use the various talents of his numerous collaborators to bring things to life.

Thomas Heatherwick is an Honorary Fellow of the RIBA and a Senior Fellow at the Royal College of Art. He is the recipient of honorary

doctorates from four Brish universies Sheeld Hallam, Brighton, Dundee and Manchester Metropolitan. He has won the Prince

Philip Designers Prize and in 2006, was the youngest praconer to be appointed a Royal Designer for Industry.

He has served on numerous judging and advisory panels and has given lectures, tutorials and talks at the Bartle School of Architec-

ture, Londons Victoria and Albert Museum and Yale University.
