Pierre Frey – CS Studio, Carin Smuts & Urs Schmid architects – Anatomy of a Dream – Broché

A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE WORLD OF FORMS PRODUCED BY CS STUDIO,IS A JOURNEY INTO THE HEART OF ARCHITECTURE. UTILITY, STABILITY AND BEAUTY ARE FINELY TUNED AND BALANCED IN THE WORK OF THIS SOUTH AFRICAN AGENCY. SHAPES, LIGHT AND COLOUR PRESENT THEMSELVES SEEMINGLY AS PRIMARY MARKERS. ASTONISHMENT TURNS INTO DELIGHT ONCE WE EXAMINE THE FUNCTIONAL QUALITIES OF THESE CREATIONS. CLEARLY, THE ARCHITECTS CARE ABOUT THE CLIENT; MEETING THEIR NEEDS IS DEAR TO THE STUDIO'S HEART. FINALLY, BEARING IN MIND THAT THE CLIENT IS MOSTLY A COMMUNITY, CONSISTING OF HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE, AND OFTEN POOR, WHAT WE DISCOVER HERE VERGES ON THE INCREDIBLE.
