EL CROQUIS 226

This edition of El Croquis magazine showcases recent work of OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen, established in 2002 as a means of exploring the prospect of architecture within the contemporary culture and urban environment. While constructing a theoretical project of architecture, OFFICE has developed a practical and pragmatic approach to design, combining skill and cunning for an expeditious decision-making process, to make architecture as a civic obligation. The issue presents a selection of twenty-five projects made over the period of seven years since the previous OFFICE monograph, including several projects that have not been published before. It also features an essay by Christophe Van Gerrewey and an interview Giovanna Borasi conducted with Kersten Geers and David Van Severen.
