In March, the team Vincents Architecture visited Hamburg and long time cooperation partners in the architectural office "Architekten von Gerkan, Marg und Partner", in order in more detail to view their objects, accomplished in Hamburg, to exchange the gained experience and to discuss the further development of the joint projects.

During the visit, professor Meinhard von Gerkan personally showed to the Vincent’s architects’ team his office at the Elbe River’s side, where the top ambitious projects for Germany, China, Vietnam, Brazil and other world countries are being created. Next to the "gmp" office, there is also one of his latest projects - the exhibition pavilion, which was opened last summer with the exhibition “The Lines of Thoughts”.

Professor Meinhard von Gerkan noted that he has special emotional attachment to Latvia and to the partners in Vincent, which gives an even greater emotional fulfilment, compared with the huge-scaled projects in China and other countries around the world. Gerkan has decided to respond to the Latvian Minister’s of Culture Dace Melbarde’s personal invitation and to participate in the programme of the cultural activities within the Latvia’s centenary celebrations.
