a+u's December issue features the Swiss architecture firm Edelaar Mosayebi Inderbitzin Architekt*innen (EMI), founded in 2005 by architects Ron Edelaar, Elli Mosayebi, and Christian Inderbitzin. Working primarily in Switzerland, their works include exhibitions, refurbishments, building projects, and urban planning. However, housing is the firm's dominant architectural preoccupation, as they examine and reinterpret the small-scale components that contribute to human agency and delight within a dwelling. As EMI says, they have "developed a veritable obsession with doors." EMI are storytellers, using subtle gestures - a turn of a wall, the absence of a lintel - to expand upon the purely functional perception of everyday architectural elements.
