Lecture Date 2016-10-10
SPoP Works will present an overview of the projects developed by Space Popular since the practice was founded in Bangkok in 2012 by AA graduates Lara Lesmes and Fredrik Hellberg. Dedicated to immersive and meaningful spaces, the practice has participated in several international competitions and completed projects in Asia and Europe. Their work explores ways of integrating architectural references, semiotic devices, color and spatial complexity in order to engage the user, together with innovative solutions for the geometry, manufacturing and construction of such spaces.
Lara Lesmes and Fredrik Hellberg are both AA graduates and the founders of SPoP (SpacePopular.com). They both spent the past 5 years in Bangkok (TH) as adjunct professors and coordinators at INDA (cuinda.com) whilst they set up and developed their practice through built projects -ranging from furniture pieces and immersive interiors to medium scale buildings and large structures- and speculative research.
