SPAN, Matias del Campo & Sandra ManningerVienna based Architecture Firm SPAN, headed by Matias del Campo and Sandra Manninger, is driven by a compulsive desire to speculate about architectural opportunities in the presence of animated matter, organic entities and their underlying geometrical and mathematical logics. Their award winning architecture designs fuse these obsessions into projects applying the most advanced digital design tools and cast them into form by computer-controlled machinery. Their activities include Architecture Design, exhibitions and lectures as well as teaching in various countries and institutions such as the ESARQ in Barcelona, The Dessau Institute of Architecture at the Bauhaus and the Postgraduate Course of the Angewandte in Vienna.Mag.arch Matias del CampoMatias del Campo was born in Santiago, Chile in 1970.
