SPACE May 2024 (No. 678)
A House by a Lake (2023)
We do not believe in choosing a single architectural theme and sticking to it for the ensuing decades. There are some architects who have been able to maintain a consistent body of work throughout their lives, while others have undergone several transformations in design approach from their 30s to their 60s, producing consistently meaningful work. We want to pursue the latter because we find it more intriguing.
The works presented in this issue of SPACE were designed between 2019 and 2022 and completed by 2023. Of course, it is not possible to extract a single theme that runs through them. However, we were able to identify three keywords that were mentioned relatively often in the designs of these buildings: ‘Time, Territory, and Technology’.
