Leonidas Trampoukis, cofounder of LOT office for architecture & Objects of Common Interest will be among the speakers at Eso Conference 2020 which will take place on February 4.
Stimulating interaction
Amidst a tendency to overdesign and over prescribe ways to experience, view or inhabit a building or a space the talk will present works and projects across the realm of architecture, design and public art that define the interest of the Studio, challenging preconceived notions of interaction within a space and how elements of informality, surprise and play are tools to extend ideas beyond the required and into unknown fields of creativity and program.

Under a dual identity Leonidas Trampoukis with Eleni Petaloti operate both as LOT and Objects of Common Interest Studio within the realm of architecture, art and design, blending projects in scale from objects and installations to interactive immersive environments, interior spaces, and architecture sharing common vision in flowing seamlessly through interdisciplinary practices focusing on strong concepts that blur the boundaries between the artistic and the pragmatic, between form and abstraction, merging their strong backgrounds in architecture and art.
