Lars Van Vianen is a meta-designer and founder directing Scape Agency, blending interactive art, parametric architecture and computational methods to design regenerative, technology-naturalised environments. With 11+ years of cross-disciplinary experience as designer, developer and innovation lead, he launches products in bioreceptive surfaces, augmented photobiology and spatial intelligence that operate across scales and between natural and artificial actors. He also leads Starling and Matter Technologies, curating networks of artists, engineers and scientists to translate ecological principles into practical spatial systems. Trained at Delft Hyperbody and experienced in AR, digital fabrication and soft-robotic thinking, Lars moves fluidly between code, material science and built environments. Less obvious: he frames design as the parametrization of dreams, using computation not just to optimize form but to surface new ecological narratives for everyday life. Based in Amsterdam, he combines studio practice, teaching and public curation to shape the future of lived space.
