Architecture on Water

Architect Marshall Blecher presents an insightful webinar exploring the intricate relationship between urban environments and water. The webinar delves into the innovative Copenhagen Islands project, which reimagines urban spaces through the integration of water as a central design element. Blecher discusses the creative potential of water-based architecture, as well as the practical challenges and opportunities it presents in the context of urban planning, sustainability, and community engagement.
Marshall Blecher is an award winning Australian architect based in Copenhagen, Denmark. Marshall is the co-founder and director of MAST, a maritime architecture studio based in Copenhagen. Marshall also runs Studio Marshall Blecher which is focussed on creating unique and well crafted houses. Marshall has travelled the world researching floating architecture and its potential to improve the sustainability and quality of coastal cities. He has designed award winning floating houses, piers, islands and waterside developments across europe as well as a series of unique houses across Scandinavia and Australia.
