In this illustrative overview of a decades-long, headstrong design career, architect Mathieu Bruls demonstrates that anything can be architecture. His oeuvre effortlessly covers all scales; from urban planning and architecture, to product design. Throughout, even autonomous objects emerge and written reflections on contemporary culture and the arts flow from his pen. Nowhere does his body of work show an excessive surrender to temporary trends; it has, in pen and pencil, an unmistakable signature all its own. Ever since, the design studio is based in Maastricht. A town located in the midst of great regional and national cultural diversity. Potentially, the relativity of any cultural opinion is quickly exposed as such by neighbouring perspectives. Motivation is sought deeper and further afield. The work resonates with the broader forces at play. Bruls’ search for form and meaning cannot exist without an examination of human nature.
