AFFR explores the relationship between film, cities and architecture by programming and screening architecture films and by organizing introductions and debates.
The Architecture Film Festival Rotterdam (AFFR) was established in 2000, and the foundation organized its festival the same year as the first architecture film festival in the world. Festivals also took place again in 2001 and 2003. In 2007 AFFR made a fresh start after a few years of silence. In 2009 the event expanded significantly in terms of visitor numbers and programming.
The experience and use of buildings are central to Arno’s designs. He reduces complex issues to the essence and then comes up with a clear and user-friendly answer. This creates buildings that enhance their environment and are made to be used pleasantly or very efficiently. Arno graduated from TU Delft Architecture and, after a number of other architectural firms, has worked for EGM architects for 15 years.
