ARCHITECTS

What is the condition of architecture in Poland today?

Jacek Droszcz: I have the impression that we have quickly caught up with the West in this field. Our graduates are sought after by the world's best architectural studios.

"Drawing is an architect’s language.”

What is architecture to you?

Jakub Bladowski: In my opinion, the key role of architecture is to meet the needs of users along with residents. At the beginning we always try to precisely identify human needs and respond to them with form. This is an important element in each of our projects. The effects of such an approach are perfectly visible in the example of the Nowe Kolibki project. It is important for the architect to feel like the director of a human life. We create opportunities.

„We shape the space to be flexible and diverse. The rest is designed by life."

Marek Łańcucki

Architect, graduate of the Faculty of Architecture at the Warsaw University of Technology. He also studied in the USA on a Fullbright scholarship. He worked in renowned architectural studios in Warsaw and London. Since 2008 he has been running his own architectural studio Maarte.

Where did the idea for going down the architectural path come from?

Marek Łańcucki: The reason is prosaic - my dad is an architect. In my family, most of us had some sort of connection with architecture or art. Ever since I was a child I liked drawing. I always knew what I wanted to do in life. It's not a profession - I feel like an architect. I really enjoy doing it. I've been working for almost 24 years and I love it more and more.

What’s the most important aspect in an architect's work?

Zbigniew Reszka: My architectural credo is that there should be as little architecture as possible in the landscape. Our intention is to design in such a way that the objects fit harmoniously into it.
