DROO - Da Costa Mahindroo Architects

How will we live together?

DROO’s Harikleia Karamali speaks at THE PLAN event set in Venice alongside the delayed Architecture Biennale 2021. The panel discussion part of PERSPECTIVE EUROPE 2021 forum reflects on how the pandemic may have affected architecture and ways to practice it.
During this long pause we have been keen to preserve the iterative quality of our design process shaping in collaboration with clients ways to bring ideas into forms through poetic use of technology, materials and fabrication techniques.
Harikleia exposed how the post-pandemic is for DROO an opportunity to further reflect on adaptation of urban ultra-dense contexts like our LondAris, London and Paris continuum.
Emphasizing the need to consider what is already there and how we can re-use it, upgrade it to current standards, make it functional for current needs, comes for us hand in hand with environmental crisis and urgency to re-think construction, material waste, and retrofit.
