However quite comic at first sight the work ‘Adaption’, by Haugen/Zohar Arkitekter brings you face-to-face with their reply on the question
‘If architecture is once again a space for dialogue, what should it bring with it for this resumed journey?’, posed by the Biennale’s curator, David Chipperfield. The installation was shown in the Nordic Paviljon as part of the Scandinavian contribution ‘Light house: on the Nordic common ground’, during the 13th Venice Architecture Biennale. True to my heart is their statement on this topic; ‘We believe there
is a shared Nordic Common Ground, best understood as a fundamental mind-set pertaining to a profound relation to nature and a sincere understanding of our social responsibilities. In architecture, this
is conveyed through an approach towards architecture of the essence’.
