LAVA is an initiative launched in 2024 by Eva Lavranou and Chaido Kaproulia, founders of isola studio, with the goal of expanding the architectural discourse in Greece and fostering deeper connections with the global community of creatives. As today's political, social, technological, and environmental challenges become increasingly complex, the need for a radical rethinking of how we envision and design the built environment has never been more urgent.

LAVA serves as a platform for innovation, experimentation, and interdisciplinary collaboration, offering a departure from conventional architectural practice and office routines. It invites architects, designers, and thinkers to explore new perspectives and craft alternative realities for the design discipline. By breaking free from traditional frameworks, LAVA encourages a fluid exchange of ideas and embraces unconventional approaches to problem-solving.
Through its research initiatives and diverse programming—including exhibitions, publications, talks, and performances—LAVA brings together a vibrant community of architects, designers, artists, and researchers. The platform is particularly focused on those who are drawn to interventionist practices, challenging established norms and reimagining the future of design. Its mission is to disrupt the status quo, foster communication across disciplines, and generate forward-thinking ideas that can reshape topographies and address the urgent issues of our time. LAVA’s vision is to cultivate a creative environment where fresh ideas can flourish and the boundaries of architecture can be continuously redefined.
