Both Sofia Krimizi and Kyriakos Kyriakou of ksestudio will be sharing their Blueprint of a Practice! The duet is based in New York, London and Athens, and has adopted a design approach that is purposefully defined by its transcultural background.

ksestudio's award-winning work has been exhibited at La Biennale di Venezia, the Storefront for Art and Architecture and the Museum of the City New York. Recent work includes a seaside hotel in the Aegean, a work-live space in Athens, a very big table in New York, and a perforated projection screen in Philadelphia.

Tonight Ivi Diamantopoulou, the co-founder of New Affiliates, will tell us more about hers and Jaffer Kolb's Blueprint of a Practice! The NY-based studio's work seeks to blur the lines between volume, structure, decoration, and surface through formal and material experimentation.

The studio's award-winning work has been exhibited at the Storefront for Art and Architecture, La Biennale di Venezia and elsewhere. Collaborators include The Jewish Museum, The Shed, the Canadian Centre for Architecture (CAA) and the Ίδρυμα Ωνάση / Onassis Foundation.

Lydia Xynogala will be sharing her own Blueprint of a Practice tomorrow! Her NY-based studio ALÓS is driven by research and experimentation rooted in the natural sciences and material culture.

The studio's well-published built work includes an arts space in Brooklyn, a renovation of a Victorian House in London and several residential projects in the Greek islands.
