0047 and Kinnarps are proud to present Jürgen Mayer H in lecture at the annual Kinnarpsmessen in Lillestrøm



Jürgen Mayer H. is the founder and principal of J. Mayer H., a cross-disciplinary studio based in Berlin. Since its foundation in 1996, the studio has produced an acclaimed body of work that unites construction and sustainability, urbanity and architectural form. Approaching the interface between architecture, urban planning, art installations and the development of new materials, Mayer’s work uses the relationship between body, nature and technology to form the background for a new production of space.

Jürgen Mayer H. attended the Stuttgart University, The Cooper Union and Princeton University and has taught at Harvard University, the Architectural Association in London, Columbia University in New York, among others. His work has been published and exhibited worldwide and it is part of international collections such as MoMA New York and SFMoMA in San Francisco. Mayer has been awarded with numerous prizes, including the Mies van der Rohe Award Emerging Architects Special Mention (2003), the Holcim Awards Bronze Europe (2005), and the International Architecture Award of the Chicago Athenaeum (2009). In 2010 he received the Audi Urban Award, a competition between six internationally renowned architectural firms for a vision of Cities of 2030.
