Laurent Liefooghe has been active as an architect since 1998. He first worked at the architecture firm ‘BDP’ and later at ‘Xavier De Geyter architects’ (XDGA) while in parallel developing an idiosyncratic and exploratory practice investigating the boundaries between architecture, art and performance. Between 2004 and 2005 he was a theoretical researcher at the Jan van Eyck Academy in Maastricht and since 2008 he has been a lecturer in the department of Architecture and urban planning at the University of Ghent. In 2010 he founded the architectural office LLAC together with the swiss architect Christophe Antipas.
