LAVA, the Laboratory for Visionary Architecture, was founded in 2007 by directors Chris Bosse, Tobias Wallisser, and Alexander Rieck. Known for combining digital workflow, nature’s structural principles, and the latest digital fabrication technologies to build ‘more with less’, the international network practice is able to create more architecture with less material, energy, time, or cost. LAVA's work has been published and exhibited internationally, at among others the Venice Biennale and the Barcelona Landscape Architecture Biennale. Alongside eye-catching projects such as Masdar Plaza and the German Pavilion at Expo 2020 in Dubai, the company develops buildings and neighborhoods in Germany, China, Australia and the Arab region including the future-oriented city of NEOM. An international team of 80 architects at four locations brings LAVA’s projects worldwide to reality.
