Lecture: "Habiter Autrement"
Mia Hägg is the co-founder and partner of Habiter Autrement (HA), an architecture studio in Paris developing experimental housing and master planning projects across Europe. In 2008 the office was selected by Jacques Herzog to participate in the Ordos 100 housing project in Inner Mongolia. In 2008, HA was commissioned for a housing project at the Entrepôt MacDonalds in Paris, based on a Master Plan by OMA. In 2008 HA was invited in collaboration with Ateliers Jean Nouvel to develop a proposal for Slussen, the main traffic hub of Stockholm (slussenmeetinglines.com). HA was recently appointed a commission for a large urban Master Plan in Toledo, Spain involving 2000 housing units, commercial and public facilities (barrioavanzadotoledo.com). Most recently, HA designed an "Energy Pavilion" for the Stockholm Exhibition 2010, focusing on issues of sustainability and community.
Prior to establishing Habiter Autrement, Ms. Hägg was an Associate with Herzog & de Meuron and Project Manager for the National Olympic Stadium project in Beijing.
