The presentation will explore various themes around which, over the past 25 years, the work of Sauerbruch Hutton has evolved:

  • Viewing the city as landscape and working with its physical, cultural and historical traces.
  • Engaging with the necessity of reduction and reinterpreting this as a luxury – in terms of a considered response to both depleting resources of energy as well as reduction in financial means.
  • Exploring the notion of kinetic polychromy – that is, how buildings affect us as we move around them and sense them corporeally.
  • Most importantly, discussing architecture’s imperative to engage with the public realm.
