The emergence of a new sense of spatiality
For Philippe Rahm, architecture and space, the office building and the workspace, can be considered ecosystems. The emergence of embedded technologies and the dematerialization of architectural productions are faced with the question of changing our relationship to space. By focusing on the physical and chemical properties of materials, space, and its users, the experimental architecture of Philippe Rahm leverages data which is invisible to the scale of a building and reveals many possibilities. Philippe Rahm is a Swiss architect. He is the director of Philippe Rahm Architects and teaches at the École Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture of Versailles and at the Graduate School of Design of Harvard University.
