Peter Zumthor, architect, in conversation with architects Billie Tsien and Tod Williams.
About Peter Zumthor
Born in 1943 in Basel, Switzerland, Zumthor works with around three dozen people in the alpine setting of Haldenstein, Switzerland, producing architecture originals like Kunsthaus Bregenz, Bregenz, Austria; Therme Vals, Vals, Switzerland; Kolumba Museum, Cologne, Germany; and the Steilneset Memorial, Vardo, Norway. In 1963, he began studies at the Kunstgewerbeschule, an arts and crafts school in Basel, and studied industrial design and architecture as an exchange student at Pratt Institute in New York in 1966.
Zumthor founded Atelier Peter Zumthor in 1979. His work is largely unpublished because he believes that architecture must be experienced first-hand. He is the recipient of numerous awards including the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture—Mies van der Rohe Award (1999); the Praemium Imperiale (2008); and the Pritzker Architecture Prize (2009). In 2012, he was awarded the RIBA Royal Gold Medal. He is currently designing the David Geffen Galleries at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles.

Sumayya Vally was born in Pretoria, South Africa in 1990. Vally’s design, research, and pedagogical practice is searching for expression for hybrid identities and territory, particularly for African and Islamic conditions. Her design process is often forensic, and draws on the aural, performance and the overlooked as generative places of history and work.
She is the co-founder and principal of the award-winning architecture and research studio, Counterspace. A TIME100 Next List honouree, Sumayya Vally is named as shaping the future of the architectural canon and practice; and designer of the 20th Serpentine Pavilion (2020/2021), Vally is the youngest architect ever to be commissioned for the internationally renowned architecture programme. She has worked on initiating and developing Support Structures for Support Structures, a new fellowship programme launched at the Serpentine, which supports artists and collectives who support community through their work at the intersections of art and social justice, art and the archive, and art and ecology. In 2022 Sumayya Vally was selected by the World Economic Forum to be one of its Young Global Leaders, a community of the world’s most promising artists, researchers, entrepreneurs, activists, and political leaders.
As Artistic Director, Vally is currently working on curating the first Islamic Arts Biennale taking place in Jeddah in 2023. She is currently collaborating on the design of the Ellen Johnson Sirleaf Presidential Center for Women and Development in Monrovia, Liberia, the first presidential library dedicated to a female head of state, where she will oversee the scenography, pavilions, and exhibition spaces. She is also working on a garden and gathering place commemorating the 5th Pan-African Congress held in Manchester, UK, in 1945.
Sumayya’s practice operates adjacent to the academy. For six years she led the masters’ studio, Unit 12, at the Graduate School of Architecture, University of Johannesburg—founded by Professor Lesley Lokko, with the intent to create a curriculum for the African continent. She has lectured widely, most recently as Pelli Distinguished Visiting Lecturer at the School of Architecture, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
