pihlmann architects was founded by Søren Thirup Pihlmann in 2021. Their portfolio ranges from temporary pavilions, over single-family houses to transformations in cultural environments worthy of preservation and cultural institutions.
To pihlmann, architecture is defined by the two outermost positions of the architectural scale – context and component – and the space in between is created as a result of these. philmann is involved throughout all phases of a projects: Conducting research and experiments with one hand while constructing with the other.
pihlmann projects are characterized by the idea of highlighting the material itself as the protagonist of architecture. By exploring the immanent processes and potentials of materials, they believe that robust and simple architecture comes to life. An architecture which inherits both character and atmosphere from the function and origin of the applied materials.
We look forward to seeing you at this lecture.
