Vinklu

Vinklu started in 2017 as a collaborative practice, based in Bucharest. It pursues a narrative process through various creative fields: architecture, interior/exhibition design and object design. In time, the key aspect is to develop a personal praxis that revolves around idea, intention and intuition. The context is the starting point rather than allowing the programme to dictate the architecture. A keen interest is always showed in how materials contribute to the creation of particular atmospheres. The design process is structured by imagination, empathy, craft, thinking about how people can experience architecture. Durability is a key aspect of a project’s social value and a quality that's always pursued; it is important to choose the right material, detail them carefully and understand how they will weather. In the past years, the energy invested has kept the focus towards the rural and restored. The main direction is to keep developing the praxis in the countryside, whilst investing ideas in the other small scale projects.
