Territorial Agency

Territorial Agency is an independent organization established by architects and urbanists John Palmesino and Ann-Sofi Rönnskog. Territorial Agency combines contemporary architecture, art, spatial analysis, advocacy, and action to promote comprehensive territorial transformations in the Anthropocene epoch. Recent projects include “Sensible Zone”; “Oceans in Transformation” commissioned by TBA21–Academy; “Museum of Oil” with Greenpeace, ZKM Reset Modernity, and Chicago Architecture Biennial; “Anthropocene Observatory” with Armin Linke and Anselm Franke at HKW Haus der Kulturen der Welt Berlin. John Palmesino and Ann-Sofi Rönnskog are Unit Masters at the AA Architectural Association School of Architecture, London. John is the cofounder of multiplicity, an international research network on the contemporary city. Territorial Agency was awarded the S+T+ARTS PRIZE 2021 – Grand prize of the European Commission honoring innovation in technology, industry, and society stimulated by the arts – Artistic Exploration.
