Summary:
Tony Fretton Architects covers different dimensions and typologies, from government buildings and public offices, to multipurpose cultural spaces and collective or private housing. The architecture is characterised by its high quality and sensory experience, not only in the daily use of spaces but also from a social perspective and urban scale. Powerfully direct, Tony Fretton’s work is elaborated from refreshingly uncomplicated architectural strategies.

Summary:
GEO- Earth- is a word that simultaneously signifies something vast and elemental. It refers to both the planet on which we live and the soil that sustains us. GEO is the physical and representational bedrock of landscape architecture- the foundation of many disciplines from which we draw our knowledge. Geography, Geology, and Geometry, in particular, are fundamental to our discipline’s intellectual core. And now, we seem ever more entangled in GEO as some scholars across the sciences and humanities argue that humans should be recognized as agents of change at geologic time scales.

Summary:
''Superposition'' is a periodical, investigating the human side of architecture. Based in Europe and founded in 2020 by a group of architects and artists – Leo Bettini Oberkalmsteiner, Tibor Bielicky, Max Creasy, Ellena Ehrl and Dominic Kim – ''Superposition'' is a polyvalent concept. 'Super' connotes the extraordinary in a positive sense. 'Position' refers equally to a spatial, a temporal and an intellectual emplacement. We believe in multilogue, in the concept of the 'Weltbürger' and in the act of building bridges, intending to create a vibrant movement of friction. We are motivated by a will to collaborate and by the desire to share observations and impressions.
