Daryan Knoblauch is Director of the eponymous Berlin/London-based architecture studio using space as an infrastructure to stage, observe, and challenge the classical notions of the profession. Interested in the feedback loop between contemporary movements, the environment and invisible structures that constitute daily life, research is undertaken through built design. His approach is articulated in form of cultural centres, ephemeral pavilions and devices for artistic performances.
Daryan Knoblauch teaches as a Studio Master at the Architectural Association (AA) and is an Associate Lecturer at the Royal College of Art (RCA) in London.
