Imperfection. Atelier Stéphane Fernandez

St phane Fernandez creates "silent architecture" that respects and invests in the landscape as it takes shape. A minimalist in expression with a maximalist's attention to detail, the French architect centers his models, plans, and sketches on the search for materials, as well as the movement of bodies and the tensions generated between them.

Imperfection--Atelier St phane Fernandez is the first book to focus on Fernandez's studio in Aix-en-Provence, Atelier St phane Fernandez, and it features five designs emblematic of his approach: a children's pavilion in Saint-Rapha l, a media library in Carnoux, a dormitory and laboratory building in Banyuls-sur-Mer, a cultural center in Vertou, and a primary school in Cannes. The book includes a manifesto and essay by Fernandez, a conversation between Fernandez and architectural historian l onore Marantz, and more than one hundred color illustrations, including plans and photographs by Berlin-based photographer Schnepp Renou.
