We believe the ‘era of the ego’ is over, the era of the Star-Architect is over. The future is in collaboration and in trying to connect to people outside our industry. We do that with topics that will define all of our future: how can we accommodate a rising population with a more ecological way of building? How can architecture create a sense of identity, a sense of time, and a sense of place? How can buildings help to make our cities more resilient and contribute to build future-proof communities? And how can architecture be a part of our food production and help to feed an ever-growing population? We firmly believe that architecture can be an aid to these tasks and be more than just a consuming island in the city. Buildings should be a part of our productive grid and should be able to give back to the surroundings and the community.
