Louise Lemoine is a French filmmaker and artist renowned for her innovative approach to exploring architecture and the built environment through cinema.
[1] Born in France, Lemoine studied cinema and visual arts, which laid the foundation for her distinctive storytelling style that combines documentary and narrative techniques.
Lemoine’s approach moves away from traditional depictions of architecture as static and object-centered, focusing instead on the dynamic, lived experiences of people interacting with these spaces daily.
Her film Moriyama-San, produced with Ila Bêka, exemplifies this vision by portraying the everyday life of a Japanese man living in an iconic architectural home.
The Los Angeles Times referred to her film Koolhaas Houselife as “breaking down the walls of architectural documentary,” showcasing her innovative methods.
