Ricardo Gomes behind

KWY is a multidisciplinary platform investigating the nature of collaboration within the context of specific projects. It was founded by architects Ben Allen and Ricardo Gomes in Berlin, and curator and editor James Bae in Los Angeles. Projects include collaborations between artists, writers, curators, educators, designers and architects. Each project begins with dialogue and analysis between the collaborators. This process-oriented methodology often leads to diverse thoughts that are otherwise unexpected and unimaginable.
