OFFICE KERSTEN GEERS DAVID VAN SEVEREN
‘AMBIGUITY’ AND ‘ANOMALY’ HAVE SERVED AS THE CORES BEHIND THE CONCEPTUALIZATION AND MATERIALIZATION OF THE ARCHITECTURE OF OFFICE KERSTEN GEERS DAVID VAN SEVEREN SINCE ITS FOUNDATION IN 2002. THE STUDIO’S DISTINCT CHARACTER IS DERIVED FROM THE SIMPLICITY OF THEIR GEOMETRIC FORMS THAT POSSESS A GREAT COMPLEXITY OF SOCIETAL ISSUES AND ARCHITECTURAL THEORIES. SUCH HAS LED OFFICE TO OBTAIN THEIR STATUS AS ONE OF BELGIUM’S MOST SUCCESSFUL AND PROMISING ARCHITECTURE STUDIOS. BACK IN THE DAYS WHEN KERSTEN GEERS AND DAVID VAN SEVEREN WERE STUDENTS OF ESCUELA TÉCNICA SUPERIOR DE ARQUITECTURA DE MADRID (ETSAM) WHERE THEY PURSUED THEIR STUDIES AFTER GRADUATING FROM BELGIUM’S UNIVERSITY OF GHENT, ABALOS & HERREROS, ONE OF SPAIN’S MOST PROMINENT ARCHITECTS OF THE 1990S, BECAME AN INFLUENCE DURING A TIME THAT PLAYED A SIGNIFICANT PART IN THE EVOLUTION OF THEIR ARCHITECTURAL LANGUAGE. THE CONTENT AND SCALE OF THEIR WORKS VARY FROM FURNITURE AND ARCHITECTURE TO MASTERPLANNING PROJECTS. THE STUDIO HAS RECEIVED A GREAT NUMBER OF AWARDS INCLUDING THE BELGIAN PRIZE FOR ARCHITECTURE IN 2009, 2013 AND 2015, TO THE VENICE BIENNALE FOR ARCHITECTURE’S SILVER LION AWARD IN 2010 GIVEN TO THE ‘MOST PROMISING YOUNG PRACTICE’ FOR THEIR REPUTABLE GARDEN PAVILION PROJECT. THE TWO PARTNERS HAVE FURTHER BEEN INVITED TO TEACH AT GLOBALLY RENOWNED UNIVERSITIES SUCH AS HARVARD GRADUATE SCHOOL OF DESIGN.
