- Summary
- "It is rare to encounter an architect who consistently and rigorously seeks to reduce space to its most basic forms, while remaining acutely sensitive to the human experience of that space. For over two decades, Belgian architect Vincent Van Duysen has created a series of exquisite buildings and residences, from the Low Countries to New York, with profoundly elemental spaces enriched by a refined palette of materials. The results are at once sublime and rich, minimal yet tactile." "This is the complete monograph of Van Duysen's work, including his domestic architecture, office and commercial spaces, as well as furniture and decorative objects for such leading international manufacturers as B & B Italia, Poliform and Swarovski. Over thirty projects are presented in detail, each with a project profile, many accompanied by specially commissioned photographs taken by Alberto Piovano, along with a complete project chronology. Collected together in a large-scale format, the book includes an introduction by noted architecture critic Marc Dubois and tributes by architects David Adjaye, Alberto Campo Baeza and Michael Gabellini, fashion designer Ann Demeulemeester and furniture designer Patricia Urouiola, all of whom provide fascinating insights into Van Duysen's inspirational output."--Jacket.
