First session of the lecture series “Europa Europa 2” featuring architect Leopold Banchini, introduced by Igor Urdampilleta, member of the studio Arquitectura-G.
The series aims to showcase contemporary European architecture through the presentation of the work of eight guest architects, each introduced by Catalan architects.
Leopold Banchini
Guest professor at HEAD (Haute École et de Design) in Geneva since 2010 and assistant professor at EPFL since 2009. He was the designer of the Archozoom project in 2009 and interned at Lot/ek Architects (New York) between 2004 and 2005. Since 2008, he has been part of 1to100 Architects, a collective based in Geneva.
