atelier ehrmann:gruber, founded by Christina Ehrmann and Christopher Gruber, is a collaborative and experimental practice interested in the exploration of complex relationships between living beings, objects, and processes around us in space – by taking the resulting practices, habits, and rituals as the starting point of an exploration in space.  Architecture and technology are mutually dependent; when technologies change and transform, the approaches to dealing with different technologies in architecture also change and expand. Multimedia approaches are fundamental for us to deal with the contemporary changes and multi-layered interconnectivity around us in space. We are searching for refined ecological, metropolitan, and usable distinctions – enriching the spatial identities of sites. We enjoy places of authenticity. We celebrate the expressive abilities of constructions and the slight nuances of doing things differently. By nurturing social interaction, our endeavors seek to react to both a collective, a human, and a non-human scale. Imagining the perspectives of others to redefine spaces of the domestic and the wild. We understand architecture as a result of moulded grounds, waterflooded surfaces, condensed atmospheric volumes, and illuminated shades. To us, advocating for experimentation and exploration, liberty in construction primarily entails consistently challenging one’s own beliefs. As a gleeful act of poetic imagination, we aspire to craft spaces and venues of tranquillity, modesty, and wonder, contributing to a good life.
