BIO

Mike Tonkin

Mike je arhitekta i pejzažni arhitekta sa više od 20 godina iskustva u razvoju inovativnih i kreativnih projekata u arhitekturi, umetnosti i pejzažu. Diplomirao je arhitekturu na Royal Collage of Art u Londonu. Mike je predavao na brojnim školama arhitekture u Engleskoj i na Dalekom istoku, a trenutno predaje na Univerzitetu u Batu (University of Bath). On drži predavanja o brojnim temama, uključujući različite svetske kolokvijalne arhitekture, koristeći iskustvo i fotografije sa svojih obimnih putovanja.

Anna Liu

Anna je arhitekta sa više od 15 godina iskustva u arhitekturi, umetnosti i pejzažu. Diplomirala je na Univerzitetu Columbia u Njujorku i radila u biroima u Kini, Japanu, SAD i Velikoj Britaniji. Pre osnivanja studija Tonkin Liu sa Mike Tonkinom, 2002. godine, radila je za Arup Associates u Hong Kongu i Londonu. Zajedno su radili četiri godine na Architectural Association School of Architecture u Londonu. gde su držali studio za istraživanje obrazaca u prirodi i u ljudskoj naravi.

Tonkin Liu je nagrađivana arhitektonska praksa čiji rad obuhvata arhitekturu, umetnost i pejzaž. Ona naprednim klijentima nudi dizajn precizno podešen lokaciji, ljudima koji će da je koriste i kulturi koja ih okružuje.

Ova nedvosmislena potraga za novim počecima prikazana je u knjizi asking looking playing making, objavljenoj 1999. godine. Jedinstvena metodologija pripovedanja istražuje arhetipove koji će saopštiti proces projektovanja od početka do završetka, dajući projektu trajni odjek.

Svaki projekat je oličenje njihovog odnosa prema prirodi. Neki projekti veličaju promene vremena i godišnjih doba, neki dočaravaju moć prirode kao simbola, dok drugi oponašaju formu i performanse, upotrebljavajući lekcije iz prirode kao inspiraciju za pionirske tehnike građenja. Njihova preokupacija prirodom utiče na proces projektovanja, bilo kroz biomimikriju ili upotrebom elemenata koje nam priroda velikodušno pruža.

Tonkin Liu imaju nameru da urade nešto što nisu uradili nikada pre, svaki put, i njihov cilj je uvek isti, da zadovolji um i dotakne srce.

BIO

MIKE TONKIN

Mike is an Architect and Landscape Architect with over 20 years of experience developing innovative and creative projects in architecture, art, and landscape. He graduated in Architecture at the Royal Collage of Art, London. Mike has taught and lectured at numerous schools of architecture in England and the Far East, and he currently teaches at the University of Bath. He lectures on a number of subjects including world vernacular architecture, using the experience and photographs taken from his extensive travels.

ANNA LIU

Anna is an Architect with over 15 years of experience in architecture, art, and landscape. She graduated in Architecture at Columbia University. Anna has worked for practices in China, Japan, the USA and the UK. Having previously worked for Arup Associates in Hong Kong and in London, she set up Tonkin Liu with Mike Tonkin in 2002. Together they taught at the Architectural Association School of Architecture for four years, exploring studies of patterns in nature and in human nature.

Tonkin Liu is an award-winning architectural practice, whose work encompasses architecture, art and landscape. They offer forward-thinking clients a design that is finely tuned to the place it is sited, the people who will occupy it, and the culture that surrounds it at the time.

This emphatic search for new beginnings is set out in their book asking looking playing making, published in 1999. The unique story telling methodology searches for archetypes that will inform the process of design from inception to completion, giving the project a lasting resonance.

Each project embodies their relationship to nature. Some projects celebrate changing weather and seasons, some evoke the power of nature as symbols, whilst others emulate form and performance, using lessons in nature to inspire pioneering construction techniques. Their preoccupation with nature informs the design process, whether through biomimicry or by using the elements nature generously gives us for free.

Tonkin Liu is interested in doing what they have not done before and their aim is always the same, to satisfy the mind and touch the heart.
