Interview with Kunlé Adeyemi on Pop-Up City
Architect, designer and urbanist Kunlé Adeyemi founded the
architecture office NLÉ in 2010. The philosophy of NLÉ is based on the
belief that the cities of the developing world will generate solutions
for the larger world and the challenges of the unstoppable urbanization
and growing number of megacities worldwide. The scope of Adeyemi's and
NLÉ ‘s practice is not limited to architecture. He also designs
furniture, among many other things, and explores social and cultural
possibilities that contribute to urbanism.

The Knight's Move
Survey season 2014-2015
is a series of lectures by eminent
international speakers who stand out by their unusual, enlightening and
inspirational visions concerning the city, urbanity, the public domain,
and community. Just as the knight moves in an atypical and unusual way
across the chessboard, Stroom Den Haag likewise wants to cut across all
disciplines and thus stimulate rethinking the city.
For the 2014-2015 series Stroom Den Haag invited as partners: Lectoraat Art & Public Space (LAPS) and Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. Two of the lectures will also take place at Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.
Media partners of The Knight's Move 2014-2015 are The Pop-Up City and Open!
The Knight's Move lectures are made possible by Creative Industries Fund NL and the Haagse Bluf Fonds.
