DESCRIPTION:Jan Ammundsen (3XN Architects)\nPeople\, process and space\nA 
 building can appear to the viewer as a single object\, a silhouette. This 
 simple image belies an inherent complexity. Architects are in the fortunat
 e position of working with the multiplicity of people\, stories\, layers a
 nd processes that comprise a building. Through examples like the IOC Headq
 uarters\, Plassen Cultural Centre and the Sydney Fish Market\, Jan Ammunds
 en would like to tell the story behind the creation of some of 3XN’s arc
 hitecture. The focus for the lecture is to give the students a glimpse of 
 3XN’s design process from the initial investigations of site\, key chall
 enges and project constraints to the democratic design exploration and fin
 ally the building itself.\n\n\nJan Ammundsen is Senior Partner and Head of
  Design at 3XN Architects\, where he is responsible for developing concept
 s and strategies for key projects to ensure the highest design quality. Hi
 s involvement in each project spans from developing initial ideas all the 
 way to the final building. Jan has been the driving force behind many of t
 he studio’s award-winning designs including The Blue Planet Aquarium\, T
 he Royal Arena\, Middelfart Savings Bank\, The Cultural Centre Plassen and
  the soon to be completed\, IOC Headquarters in Lausanne. Jan has been awa
 rded the prestigious ”Europe 40 under 40” Award\, is a member of the D
 anish Academy Council and a jury member in international architectural com
 petitions.
