Hi there, thanks for checking out my profile. I am one of the founders of Kopvol architecture & psychology in Berlin and Rotterdam. Understanding buildings as living constructions that interact with their users is core to my understanding of architecture and the content of my teaching at Columbia University, New York City (1997-2001), University of Kassel (2002-2003), Academy of Fine Arts Munich (2006-2007), TU Delft (2003-2013) and TU Munich (2017-2018). From 2000-2008 I was project architect first for the Dutch Ministry of Building in The Hague, then for the Swiss architectural office Herzog & DeMeuron in Basel. I studied architecture at the Technical University in Delft, urban design at Pratt Institute as a Fulbright scholar, New York City and advanced architectural design at Columbia University, New York City.Kopvol architecture & psychology is directed by me, architect Gemma Koppen and architectural psychologist Dr. Tanja C. Vollmer. In 2009 we opened our office in Rotterdam and in 2019 a second office in Berlin. Kopvol is the first architectural practice in Europe to employ staff from the disciplines of architecture and psychology that work together in various design and planning phases. Kopvol handles its assignments as a cross-breeding of architectural creativity, scientific precision and functional and technical requirements. Its success is reflected in awards such as the Innovation Prize of the Dutch Health Insurers (2015), endowed with 5 million euros, but above all in the trust of our clients from many different areas. What began in 2009 as adventurous new territory has now become mature expertise and an added value for demanding design tasks and building projects. Have a look at our website: kopvol.comFeel free to contact me if you have any interesting challenges or questions to discuss.
