Summary:

In this series, designers are invited to share their vision of the challenges architecture as a discipline faces today. Using theory as well as practical examples, the author proposes an architecture grounded in the specific and in the experience of place. He is one of an emerging generation of architects who value the vernacular, the material and the haptic above the universal and the efficient.
