Strasbourg – Kehl Zollhofareal Competition
Since the early 2000s the two cities have been reinforcing their ties in a process aiming to establish a European transborder metropolis along the Rhine River. The design proposal is at the same time a vision to reunite the two cities/countries around the river and a framework for the urbanization of the site.

ZAC Pajol
The office space of the ZAC PAJOL is situated in the 18th arrondissement of Paris, in the context of a vast regeneration project for this previously industrial area. The building has been inspired by the tradition of the “HOTEL INDUSTRIEL” and establishes a singular volume which apparent rigidity contrasts with its flexible use, and constitutes a durable structure.

Architecture practice led by Finn Geipel + Giulia Andi

LIN – Finn Geipel + Giulia Andi

LIN is an agency for architecture and urbanism based in Berlin and Paris. The design studio develops architectural projects as well as urban and landscape projects. Flexibility, open programming, building in context and the minimal use of resources are important issues in the firm’s approach, best described as integrative.

Projects continuously involve the participation of an international team of consultants from diverse fields (construction engineering, climate concepts, lighting, philosophy, art, design, urban programming, information design, architectural theory, ecology, urban economy). LIA, a laboratory at the Technische Universität Berlin, is a permanent research platform.
