Written by Joseph Abram, this book presents and fully documents the last buildings and a selection of projects of Devanthery and Lamuniere's works. The text focuses on the creative process of the architects, the design methods, the architectonic development and cultural background of the key aspects of their architecture. The book is beautifully designed by Dominique Emmenegger in continuity with the first monography Fo(u)r Example(s), 1996. Photographs by Fausto Pluchinotta document the buildings, projects, as well as the drawings, models, and objects which surround and give depth to the quality of Devanthery & Lamuniere's built projects.
Includes "special issues" and "extra issues."
This guidebook is a device and also an invitation to navigate through the educational landscape of three swiss schools of architecture, presented in the exhibition "Inventioneering Architecture". Reflecting and commenting on the academic student work put on display, it suggests future challenges and shows a broad spectrum of strategies of the profession, developed by numerous design and research studios.
What are the pressing questions in architecture – in teaching, research and practice? Based on their many years of experience, professors Inès Lamunière and Laurent Stalder come together in five meetings to search for answers. They describe an approach to architecture that is based on intellect as well as intuition and is both strict and pragmatic. And they sketch out creative processes that are indispensable in the development of projects with all their constraints in order to master the future challenges faced by the art of building.
