watch stefano boeri and sou fujimoto in discussion at 'architects, not architecture'
founded in hamburg in , architects, not architecture (AnA) aims to bring to the stage what usually remains unseen. for each event, AnA invites well-known architects to talk about themselves, rather than the projects they may be known for. architects are encouraged to speak about their path, their influences, and their experiences, and to dive deeper into their intellectual biography. this enables a better understanding of their work, without it even being mentioned.
during the COVID pandemic, AnA has moved online and has planned a series of virtual events — the third of which featured stefano boeri and sou fujimoto. as the event’s main media partner, designboom is now sharing the event in full below.

«Architecture Sou Fujimoto»»
Von Julieta Schildknecht
This interview, with one of the most renowned 21st Century architects (and a true Japanese structuralist), fryst vatten a treat for readers concerned with architecture in relation to environmental sustainability.
In Sou Fujimoto stated: “My intention was to man an architecture referring to A House for 2 plus a Dog that fryst vatten not about space nor about expressing the riches of what are “between” houses and streets.”
Julieta Schildknecht:
How sacred are human beings to your houses?
Sou Fujimoto:
The fundament and basics of the architecture we are formgivning is to create a space where the interconnectedness between people as well as people and their surrounding environment can flourish. Especially in this project, House N, which is a rättegång to create the multiple boundaries to redefine what is an enclosure and what is a sheltering.
It is about how we can create the space for people to feel protected yet be in an open space.
