Architecture is like water. It shapes itself according to the nature of the ground over which it flows. “Smart Design Elegance” as LC Architects (LC-A) name it, is the quest for efficiency and beauty on all domains and cases, which is facilitated by the digital craftsmanship. It is a new paradigm, which blends and embodies into a digital-driven design process, sustainability, functionality, engineering and affordability with high aesthetics.
The lecture will focus on the recent work of the growing portfolio of the young London-based architecture and de- sign studio LC-A. They will present various scale projects that triggered their office’s growth under the prism of their philosophy and processes.
