Description

Twelve architects--from Tatiana Bilbao to Álvaro Siza--reflect on the affective potential of space within their personal practices

How does space affect our physical, psychological and emotional state? Artists Ila Bêka and Louise Lemoine, founders of the eponymous French studio known for its films and books, seek to answer this question through lively and intimate conversations with 12 renowned architects for whom perception and sensoriality play a central role in their work. "Our films seek to capture the spontaneous, intuitive reactions of anonymous people who inhabit, adapt, endure or enjoy spaces they didn't necessarily choose but which condition their lives," the artists write in the book's foreword. The 12 architects they speak with--some strangers, some old friends--discuss their own personal embodiment of space and how it relates to their practice; in other words, "what moves them in architecture." Currently in its sixth printing, this book is now made available to the United States market for the first time.
Architects include: Tatiana Bilbao, Terunobu Fujimori, Jacques Herzog, Anne Holtrop, Junya Ishigami, Bijoy Jain, Ryue Nishizawa, Juhani Pallasmaa, Boonserm Premthada, Smiljan Radi?, Kazuyo Sejima, Álvaro Siza.
