about Atelier Kempe Thill
Andre Kempe (1968) and Oliver Thill (1971) are two German architectes. They both studied architecture in the Dresden University of Technology where they graduated in 1996. They moved to Rotterdam where they started working. In 1999 they won Europan 5 with a 300 dwellings project in Kop van Zuid in the Netherlands. Motivated by the accomplishment they formed Atelier Kempe Thill in 2000. One year after they completed their first built projet: the award wining “Light Building”. Since then they have participated and won several competitions in Europe. In 2005 they received the Rotterdam Maaskant Prize for Young Architects and they won “Dutch Architect oh the Year Award” in 2011.  

about 5x3
The 5x3 is a cycle of open lectures which aims to present individual practical approaches of architects from different European countries. Each semester 5 offices are invited to give a conference.  Each office presents 3 of their projects: the very first one and two others. Those 3 projects are like milestones that should represent the parcours of the office. The insight into the different working methods and the story behind the formation of the office provides a good opportunity to learn about the different ways to start and lead an architectural office. The 5x3 lectures are organized by EAST/EPFL in collaboration with the Forum d’Architecture de Lausanne.
