Ahmed Belkhodja of architecture and design firm Fala Atelier will deliver this year’s DeeDee and Herb Glimcher Lecture, an annual series featuring the world’s leading artists, architects, and designers.

Fala focuses on residential design and has created most of their built work in Porto, Portugal, while also taking part in international exhibitions and competitions, lecturing, and teaching. Their work has been featured in such publications as Architectural Review and Domus, which named Fala one the world’s 50 best architecture firms in 2020.

Belkhodja founded Fala along with fellow architects Filipe Magalhães and Ana Luisa Soares when they were all just 25 years old. The practice has expanded over the last decade and now includes a fourth partner, Lera Samovich, along with architects Celeste Assal, Ana Lima, João Carlos Lopes, Eduardo Loureiro, Joana Sendas, and Catarina Vilarinho. 
 
A Q&A with Belkhodja, moderated by Ashley Bigham, will follow the talk. Bigham is assistant professor of architecture at the Knowlton School and founding partner of Outpost Office
