Patrik Schumacher is partner at Zaha Hadid Architects, director of the Design Research Lab(DRL) at the Architectural Association School of Architecture in London and professor in several European universities. During almost 15 year she has developed these activities in parallel, which has enabled him to think experimentand practice architecture on the avant-gardeside. This experience encouraged him to write The Autopoiesis of Architecture. This is acomprehensive treatise -he stated- whose main purpose is to attempt a complete discourse analysis of architecture. His stimul us was anamalgam of writings and face to face conversations with students, professors, colleagues, and partner Zaha Hadid. However the crucial inspiration came from outside architecture, from the work of sociologist Niklas Luhmann and the Chilean biologists Humberto Maturana y Francisco Varela. He stated: «The book, although of true significance to architects, might also be able toresonate within different disciplines interestedin architecture and design as expressions of contemporary culture».
