Søren Pihlmann

We embrace what’s already there

Louisiana

Meet one of the rising and most promising stars on the architectural scene – Copenhagen-based Søren Pihlmann. He believes in building simply and with materials that are already present.

Pihlmann Architects is a young architecture office based in Copenhagen. It believes that architectural quality is fluid and connects functional and aesthetical matters with economic, political, geological, social, and cultural issues. Thus, it reflects a wide range of societal questions.

Søren Pihlmann was interviewed by Marc-Christoph Wagner in March 2023. The interview took place at his studio on Refshaleøen in Copenhagen, Denmark.

A Huge House Lecture Series

‘A Huge House’ explores the resurgence of student housing in the architectural debate. Student housing is an old programme, an archaic type, a prototype for the repeatability of modern living, and at the same time, a simple programme asking complex questions today. This lecture series invites four international practitioners to discuss this domestic typology as the ultimate project to test contemporary life.
