i don't remember where i came across him; his first, obnoxiously overpriced monograph, is about to be released stateside. i'm really digging the old swiss building renovations like his and olgiati's yellow house.

damn, that thing is quite the monolith.

Feb 18, 09 10:29 am  ·

holz.box

that's about $60 cheaper than the geman version...

it is a monolith, also in the engadin area.

Feb 18, 09 12:01 pm  ·

phuyaké

wait.. speaking of, i'm almost positive that's olgiati... i knew i had seen that before

Feb 18, 09 2:28 pm  ·

phuyaké

yeah, it's the national park center in zernez. pretty recent. i only got to visit paspels when i was over there, which i could have seen atelier bardill as well...

next, looks different, but same project:

diabase - i read the guardian article about his new school that was posted here recently, had never heard of him before then. really nice work.
would love to see more shots of the one you posted, is it from your area?

Carl Douglas (agfa8x)

actually db, is that marsh cooks's place?

the interior structure of that goff church is sweet.

No - not Cook.

A clue which will lead to the answer. The photo was taken by long standing Archinect contributor Patrick Marckesano.

brick walls, uninsulated wood floors and exposed piping, an interesting take on the contemporary gallery.

that second image is an amazing space - the light on the concrete, the big steel diagonal. it feels spanish

Feb 20, 09 3:37 am  ·

phuyaké

it is a really nice material pallet, the operable facade creates a lot of interesting conditions throughout the day:



not in spain, as this next picture shows:

to keep this going...

The building was part of the city's redevelopment in preparation for the Olympics. The firm is also featured in a recent Actar publication about young architects in the country.

ha, holz i don't think I'll ever fill those shoes, after 40 pages of this thread I've only gotten you a few times.

that slice in the car park that lines up with the reveal of the concrete wall; don't think any of my contractors could pull that off. nice detail, interesting structure.

Feb 26, 09 2:12 pm  ·

Yeah, it’s a neat little project. We are in the northern part of Ticino

Delightful.

Do we think that that panel is doing the work it appears to do ? That is, if a runaway garbage truck took out the panel, would the building risk collapse ? It appears to be a pretty robust pier, doesn't it. . .

Feb 27, 09 5:48 pm  ·

due to the thin width, i'd think the perpendicular wall provides support or there is a ton of concrete in the ground...
