Lateral Architecture
BAKPAK is a team of architects founded in 2013 by José de la Peña Gómez Millán, José M González Chamorro, Borja Navarro Ibáñez de Aldecoa, José A Pavón González, and Myriam Rego Gómez. Bakpak is a team and a method... is a way to approach architecture: architecture unfolded. This unfolding is part of the polyhydral understanding of architecture which is not understood as the linear and consecutive resolution of problems, but as a global analysis of every possible conditioning factor. In three years of cooperative life, they won competitions in China, Ecuador, España, Polonia and Germany and their projects have been published international magazines and webs of architecture.

Architects work in collaboration, across disciplines and through experiment. The invited architects and guests of different disciplines reflect about individual experiences – the ”Making of”.
The lectures investigate positions of architecture, urban design, engineering and arts throughout the European culture of interdisciplinary production of architecture, space, construction and art. This autumn semester, we expect guests from Estonia, Latvia, France, Germany, Finland, Italy and Spain. The evenings will be introduced and moderated by Dagmar Jäger.

| Opening of the Exhibition “9 Conditions of Riga” (O. Redbergs, TAB 2015) |
Architect & Curator, Riga
“Transformation projects in the Historic Centre of Riga under the patronage of UNESCO since 1997.” The lecture of Oscars Redbergs highlights the emergence of new urban typologies by offering a new classification for buildings and urban intervention projects in Riga realized in last two decades.
The research of O. Redbergs reflects his teaching and research philosophy according to which, besides the traditional techniques of scientific research, the research process leads to a new kind of instrumental knowledge that could in turn guide us towards desired impacts either on the social or urban dimension of politics.
