AA Visiting School Sao Paulo

For more than a decade, the AA Visiting School has been developing from a few scattered experimental workshops into a global network of more than 50 wildly different, highly resourced, and ambitious creative programs running throughout the entire calendar year. Anne Save de Beaurecueil and Franklin Lee have been coordinating the AA Visiting Schools in Sao Paulo since 2010. The program is a series of workshops that bring leading architects from around the world to rethink the Brazilian urban landscape through combining cutting-edge technology and critical theoretical exploration with local culture, material, and labor sources. They are also design directors of SUBdV Architecture, using a mixture of high and low design technologies to generate socially and environmentally responsive geometries for architecture, furniture, and urban design projects.
