What is Architecture? Concepts from Coop Himmelb(l)au, Lina Ghotmeh, Liam Young and Topotek 1

Subscriber Access

Simple in form but complex in substance, “What is Architecture?” remains an existential question for a lot of architecture students and young professionals. In an attempt to define this ever-changing interrogation and expose the different visions out there, the interview series: WIA – What is architecture? asks four, straightforward, questions to world-leading architectural designers and thinkers. Seeking to uncover their opinion on what architecture is and what it can do, these short videos reveal responses to “What is architecture? What can architecture do? What is your architectural position? and What is your design method?”.

ArchDaily has collaborated with WIA to release every week, 4 of these conversations, and to invite you to take on the challenge and answer these questions. The fourth and last article of the series presents the ideas and visions of Lina Ghotmeh, Wolf D. Prix from Coop Himmelb(l)au, Liam Young, and Martin Rein-Cano from Topotek 1.

Check the selection, watch the interviews and answer the 4 "simple" questions below. The most compelling responses will be published in a special editorial, at the end of the series of video articles for "What is Architecture?"
