Inauguration and Lecture by Dominique Perrault
Milano Arch Week
Milan Arch Week will be inaugurated by architect and urban planner Dominique Perrault, winner of the Mies van der Rohe Award for his design of the National Library of France.
Dominique Perrault is a French architect and urban planner of international renown, who came to prominence in 1989 with the creation of the Bibliothèque Nationale de France. Since then, he has completed major projects such as the velodrome and Olympic swimming pool in Berlin, the Campus Center of Ewha Women's University in Seoul, the extensions to the Court of Justice of the European Union in Luxembourg, and the roof of the Suzanne Lenglen court in Paris. He is currently transforming the former Invalides air terminal into a museum for the Giacometti Foundation. Approaching architecture as a discipline deeply connected to urban planning, Dominique Perrault has worked on the future vision for the Île de la Cité in Paris, designed the Athletes’ Village for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, and is currently developing a major intermodal transit centre in Seoul, called Lightwalk. Recipient of the Praemium Imperiale and honorary professor at EPFL (École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne), he also directed the Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism in 2021. Since 1989, he has worked in close collaboration with architect, designer, and scenographer Gaëlle Lauriot-Prévost, cultivating an architectural approach attentive to every scale — from the urban to the detail. Between 2025 and 2030, several of his projects are set to be completed in Europe and Asia, notably in Madrid, Lausanne, Vienna, and Seoul.
