Both rooted in the Rhine Valley, they not only run their architecture firm in Grabs but are also actively committed to promoting architectural culture in their home region. With passion, they dedicate themselves to topics such as renovation and reuse, ecology and CO2 reduction, as well as sensitive urban development – with a focus on construction, atmosphere, and cultural engagement in architecture.
Their approach? They love to experiment with materials and construction, always in search of new ways to make architecture vibrant and sustainable. It is no surprise that they are already gaining considerable attention in the architectural world: In September 2024, Allen + Crippa were awarded the “Wild Card #7” by the magazine Hochparterre, a renowned competition for architects under the age of 40. This award secures them a place in the selective competition for the Spichermatt housing estate by Logis Suisse AG in Stans – an important milestone on their exciting journey.
We are delighted to welcome these two innovative minds to the University of Liechtenstein and look forward to the impulses they will bring to teaching and practice!
