Fabio Gramazio and Matthias Kohler are joint partners in the Zurich architectural firm Gramazio & Kohler. Their work explores what they call digital materiality, a sensual quality that combines the physicality of built architecture with digital logic. Traditional design, construction, and building are complemented by the computer and digital fabrication methods. Their recent works include the sWISH* Pavilion at Expo.02 (for IBM and Swiss Re), the new Christmas illuminations in the Zurich Bahnhofstrasse, and the contemporary dance institution Tanzhaus Zurich.
The Architecture Lecture Series is funded by Field Paoli Architects, Jensen Architects, BKBC Architects Inc., BraytonHughes Design Studios, Cass Calder Smith, David Baker + Partners Architects, Heller Manus Architects, HKIT Architects, Leddy Maytum Stacy Architects, Marc L'Italien / EHDD Architecture, NicholsBooth Architects, Ratcliff, SRG Partnership, and Toby Levy, with additional support from ELS Architecture and Urban Design.
