ATELIER KF
Killian Forton
The spirit of the workshop
"To create objects and spaces where emptiness plays a role, where light and function guide form, and where each material finds its proper breath."
With a Master's degree in Architecture (UCL LOCI), I develop a cross-disciplinary practice combining spatial design, design, and photography. This multidisciplinary approach allows me to consider each project in its entirety, from the technical structure to its final visual representation.
I support professionals and individuals in transforming their spaces through precise, sustainable and functional interventions.
In parallel, my photographic practice constantly informs my vision as a designer. This work on light and perception allows me to reveal the essence of each creation, whether it originates from my own drawing or the work of my colleagues.
Atelier KF is based in Belgium.

UCLouvain-LOCI Faculty of Architecture, Architectural Engineering, Urban Planning.
Bachelor and Master in Civil Engineering Architecture
Distinction
Studies in civil engineering and architecture enabling students to work at all scales of inhabited environments, integrating technical and cultural skills. Training in the "physical conditions" of construction and the "cultural conditions" of architecture, placing them at the intersection of these two disciplines. Preparation to meet the growing challenges of organizing inhabited spaces, combining rigor and responsibility. Emphasis on project culture, multiplying the scales of work and developing a reflective and inventive approach. Acquisition of a critical mind and synthetic thinking, approaching the architectural dimension in a comprehensive manner.
2012-2015
Saint-Luc, Brussels
Secondary Study - Space Art
Distinction
Transitional training preparing for graduate studies in fields related to architecture and three-dimensional art. General education programs applied to the field of art foster artistic sensitivity and creativity. Specific courses include the organization and representation of space, drawing, analysis of spatial forms, and three-dimensional creation, complemented by courses in art history and aesthetic analysis. A rigorous scientific training provides a solid introduction to the disciplines of architecture and design, while also serving as an excellent transition for those interested in art in general.
