la haine
In the excellent series Film+Arkitektur, part of the Year of Architecture 20X11, after the screenings of Metropolis, Playtime, The Towering Inferno and more, the turn has come to La Haine.
Spring & sprout..?
Waiting for the sun, and for the snow to melt, the Urban natur group prepares for more work-shops and lectures in the Spireboks project, that will take the greenhouses in use.
And yes, one of the greenhouses is already green.

20X11
We got a letter saying:
We have the technology, the knowledge and the resources to realize any construction, the only restriction is our own creativity - we have all the answers but:
What is the question?
Friday 1 April we are one of 20 architects invited to:
1 - formulate a question
2 - propose an answer
3 - show the consequences
..all in 11 minutes.. 20X11!
