KWY’s projects are collaborations between the principals and invited specialists. Recent collaborators include artists, curators and landscape architects. With few initial preconceptions, 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.
