Sauerbruch Hutton. 2G N. 52

Sauerbruch Hutton is a practice founded by Matthias Sauerbruch and Louisa Hutton with its main offices in Berlin and London. Active as an independent concern for upwards of twenty years, they have developed a personal language that is essentially characterised by two evident features: the free, sinuous forms of some of their buildings and a bold, emphatic use of colour.

Minimum Dwelling Spaces

The projects in this volume are testimony to the idea that less really can be more. Their intelligent use of space pushes the boundaries of what most of us would consider to be feasible living dimensions creating new forms and structures that meet the needs of a variety of situations. The featured constructions maximize space in overcrowded towns and cities, for example, or minimize the impact on their rural settings.

RCR Arquitectes 1991-2010

AV Monographs/Monografias #137

The architecture of RCR (Rafael Aranda, Carme Pigem and Ramón Vilalta) combines romantic rauxa with rational rigor. Based in Olot, the capital of La Garrotxa – a Pre-Pyrenean region in Catalonia, in no more than two decades they have built in their area a crop of works with a unique language that combines the romantic desire to blend with nature and to seek the sublime through extreme relinquishment, with the rational determination of geometric rigor, abstract composition and constructive refinement, with details that bring together violently tactile materials.
