Architecture and Design Film Festival Vancouver Opening Night

Doors open at 6:00
Film Starts at 7:00
We Start With the Things We Find
LOT-EK, the visionary and beloved architecture studio of Ada Tolla and Giuseppe Lignano, has reimagined the shipping container for over 30 years. This structure and other detritus of our industrialized economy have become the materials for unique architectural and artistic spaces. Through creative pursuit, LOT-EK has become a prophet of adaptive reuse, ecological construction, and unexpected beauty. We Start With the Things We Find investigates the studio’s provocative practice as a prescription for the ills of our consumptive society. ADFF is thrilled to welcome back Director Tom Piper, whose last film at the festival was Five Seasons: The Gardens of Piet Oudolf.
