Join us for an evening with renowned architect David Mulder van der Vegt on the architecture of parliaments.

David Mulder van der Vegt is an Amsterdam based architect and writer. He is one of the founders of XML, an office for architecture, urbanism and research. The office is fueled by a research-driven approach that turns a careful analysis of a project’s core challenges into the driving force of design.

Parliament is the space where politics literally takes shape. Here, collective decisions take form in a specific setting that organizes relationships between political actors through architecture. The architecture of spaces of political congregation is not just an abstract expression of a political culture – it participates in politics.

Since 2010, architecture office XML has explored the double-sided relationship between space and politics in a series of projects, ranging from art installations, and research, to an interior for a meeting hall of European government leaders in Brussels.

On the evening van der Vegt will provide an entry way into this extensive work.
