Matthias Knoblauch Lore Architecture
Architecture / Experimental Laboratory
Member of THE (Transition Habitat Environnement) and of La Frugalité Heureuse et Créative.
“It is from this innate act of responding to human needs within a limited environment and with limited resources that spatial richness, sensitivity, and poetry emerge. This is the creative frugality we all carry within us.
For it to be joyful, it is up to us to harvest wisely the fruits of our territories, and the intelligence of our fathers and masters.”
At a time when society is reinventing itself in disorder caught between climate urgency and the frenzy of globalized production I seek, through co-creation with artists from diverse backgrounds, to re-enchant possible futures. My architectural approach is therefore collaborative, advocating shared use, mutualization, and frugality. It strives toward a sensual, resilient, and autonomous architecture, serving local culture.
