Discussions and lectures
About event
Fresh Fruit cordially invites you to lectures and discussions within the SINGULARCH project – a series of informal meetings focused on young and high-quality architecture. Lectures and discussions present unique practices and projects from local and foreign studios. You can find more information at www.singularch.sk.
For the November lecture, which will take place on Thursday 21 November 2024 in the former boiler room of the Faculty of Architecture of STU, the office from Ghent, known for its unique pragmatic approach, accepted the invitation. Their method of systematically deconstructing the existing context and transforming it into a new reality has become an inexhaustible source of inspiration that brings new interpretations of architecture.
Local guests from Prague will bring a new generation of approach to pragmatism to the discussion. Their practice, shaped by joint work since their student days and pedagogical experiences on various European scenes, is characterized by exceptional spatial solutions with a playful and precise composition of detail and material quality. Anna Svobodová and Ondřej Blaha create works that find poetic charm in austerity and rawness. In their work, they avoid mainstream conventions and consistently explore space and its in-depth representation.
The lectures are part of the KUUMŠT event – the festival of cultural and artistic students.
A week full of cultural content that broadens the horizons of students as well to the public, opens up an insight into the artistic environment and creates a foundation for new relationships independent of university affiliation or department.

GAFPA was founded in 2008 by the architects Floris De Bruyn , Philippe De Berlangeer and Frederick Verschueren. This office is involved on multiple levels – from private homes to public buildings, from urban design to scenography. GAFPA's multidisciplinary approach extends beyond residential projects, regularly competing in international architectural competitions.
The office is also involved in teaching, enabling a constant dialogue between academic research and practice. Floris De Bruyn currently leads the Masterstudio Primary Structure at the KU Leuven Faculty of Architecture in Ghent and is a frequent guest lecturer and design critic at various institutions, including EPFL Lausanne, De Singel Antwerpen and Kingston University London.
In 2017, GAFPA she participated in the Porto Academy at FAUP and in 2020 contributed to the international conference "State of the Art of Architecture" during the Triennale Milano. They were recently part of the "As found" symposium in Hasselt.
Their work has been published in international magazines such as A+, Casabella, Detail, GRAM, and Planphase.

⚫ freedom bliss | Anna Svobodová, Ondřej Blaha - https://svobodovablaha.com
"We are a studio that is not focused on any specific assignment or typology - we try to develop and implement projects with an awareness of current topics and references, while creatively reacting to specific constraints, the individuality of the client and the specifics of the given context. From the point of view of the architect's work leading to implementation, in addition to the obvious task of absolute fulfillment of the assignment, we consider the legible authorship of proposals and solutions to be essential, which inevitably implies taking responsibility for one's work."
Anna Svobodová and Ondřej Blaha are graduates. Schools of architecture at AVU and the Faculty of Architecture in Prague and architects with work and teaching experience at Miroslav Šik (AVU), but also abroad, especially in Munich, Germany at Almnannai Fischer (TUM). They deserve many high-quality renovations of apartments, realization of family houses, multiple firsts in architectural competitions, such as in the project School Campus Mníchovo Hradiště, in the design of a kindergarten in Prague 3, or in the reconstruction of the cultural center in Postřekov.
"We are definitely each other's rivals, competitors. Most of the time, we compete with each other to see who comes up with a better solution. Neither of us want to be left behind. The proposal must be from both of us, and it happens in the form of an internal competition rather than a concession. There is some friction between us, but it leads to a vital dialogue through which we both move. In designing, we work completely equally, we do not have divided roles. We interweave sketches, we take variants from one another."

SINGULARCH is a series of lectures in the field of architecture and urbanism, extending to interdisciplinary spheres. The goal of the project is to approach the issue of the formation of our surroundings, not only from the architectural, urban, but also psychological and sociological aspects. The main purpose of SINGULARCH is the contribution of proven and effective practices from around the world and the presentation of unique projects directly from the creators. The form of lectures and discussions should be beneficial for the professional public and students of architecture, education for everyone, as well as the first step towards a certain change and generating interest in what is happening in our country. Since 2012, the following architects have presented themselves: Ronald Rietveld (Rietveld Landscape, Amsterdam), Kersten Geers (OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen, Brussels), RAUM (Nanntes), FALA (Porto), Bureau B+B (Amsterdam), FAKT (Berlin ), RAAMWERK (Brussels), CIRCOLO-A (Genoa), TAB (Vienna), Toni Gironés Saderra (Barcelona), ORA (Znojmo), KOSMOS (Moscow), Langarita–Navarro (Madrid), ov–a (Prague), Paradigma Ariadné (Budapest), Atelier Fanelsa (Berlin), Malý Chmel (České Budějovice), Opposite Office (Munich), Point Supreme (Athens), FALSE MIRROR OFFICE (Genoa ), HYPERSPANDREL (Seoul), SALOTTOBUONO (Milan), COMTE/MEUWLY (Zurich), TAKK (Barcelona), Sam Chermayeff Office (Berlin) and BURR (Madrid), Nicolas Dorval-Bory Architects (Paris), Marko & Placemakers (London/Bratislava), X = ( T = E = N ) (Belgrade/Zurich), MacIver-Ek Chevroulet (Zurich) and Archival Studies (Copenhagen) . We are very pleased that in 2024 the Belgian studio GAFPA with its founder Floris De Bruyn and the Prague studio svobodová blaha accepted our last invitation. We believe that their work will be inspiring for all of us.
