Abstract
Vienna‐based Coop Himmelb(l)au has been making adrenaline‐fuelled contributions to the architectural scene ever since its foundation in 1968 by Wolf D Prix, Helmut Swiczinsky and Michael Holzer. In discussion with Guest‐Editor Matias del Campo, Prix looks back over almost four decades of the firm's existence. Among other things, he reflects on its early investigations into space‐modifying feedback systems in response to users' heartbeats, and on later experiments in initiating design with eyes closed in order to channel emotional impact rather than pure formal logic.
