Caruso St John Architects: Knitting Weaving Wrapping Pressing (English and German Edition) - Softcover
Synopsis
Caruso St John Architects achieved international acclaim with their much admired art gallery in Walsall, England, and are one of the most interesting young architectural offices in Great Britain. This monograph reveals their innovative and creative use of materials by examining their most recent projects.
"We are interested in the emotional capacity of building. In our work there is less a sense of one material being inherently more valuable than another and instead the choice of a material and the development of its assembly is seen as an opportunity to make connections with the site of each project and to invest interiors with an intense spatial character." (Caruso, St John)
Adam Caruso, born in 1962 studied architecture at the McGill University in Montreal. peter St John, born in 1959, studied at the Bartlett School and at the Architectural Association in London. Both worked for Florian Beigel and Arup Associates before opening their own architectural office in London in 1990. From 1999-2001 they were visiting professors at the architecture faculty at the University of Ticino in Mendrisio and are currently professors at the University of Bath.
