Notes from Pezo von Ellrichshausen




An interview with these Chilean architects caught my attention in the similarities between their philosophy and perhaps what mine is/is becoming.

(Interview was in Sensing Spaces. London: Royal Academy of Arts (2014): 112-133)

- emphasis is on the proportions of rooms, their sequence and they way they open
- complexity, integrity, unitary, coherent

"We believe that architecture is a balance between continuity and rupture: for instance, our Poli House and Cien House use ordinary windows, doors and materials but still provide something unexpected. We like the notion of familiar materials within a new spatial logic."
