Sweden, Kingdom of (Press Release) August 12, 2007 --
Wallpaper*, the international design magazine, has chosen RB Arkitektur (http://www.rbark.se/) for its Architects Directory: 101 of the world’s most exciting new architects.
As one of the most respected magazines in the architectural world, Wallpaper's Architects Directory will be a trusted resource; and it will be searchable, allowing visitors to pinpoint practices and studios by location.
Tony Chambers, Wallpaper* editor-in-chief, says: "Wallpaper* and its readers are passionate about architecture so launching this directory makes perfect sense. Wallpaper* cast its critical net across the globe to compile this directory of the best young architecture practices, which I'm delighted will be available to readers whenever they need it on wallpaper.com."
The directory emphasizes RB Arkitektur’s ambition to identify the uniqueness of each project through extensive analysis of each different programme. Such an approach allows for a variety of expressions and architectural solutions.
Inspiration
The site, area and locale are the greatest source of inspiration for Belatchew Lerdell, who says, 'My inspiration lies mainly in the zeitgeist.' The architect is also inspired by other aspects of contemporary culture, especially fashion, contemporary art and photography.
Innovation
Acknowledging the importance of environmental and sustainable issues in the development of architecture, the practice is orientating its design towards incorporating all relevant technologies. Belatchew Lerdell also predicts that 'various aspects of globalisation will have an even greater impact on the way we live and the houses we build'.
International Strategy

- This recognition consolidates our strategy to establish ourselves internationally, taking part in architectural competitions, in order to win larger commissions worldwide.
