Brunet Saunier Architecture Paris
Distance / Immersion
The Brunet Saunier firm develops an architectural language open to multiple readings. Its form is always simple, if not minimal, born of a fundamental reflection on place and on the means of increasing its value in use. The structure, rational and without artifice, follows from a strategy of openness to future change. The façade expresses a strong, serene and deeply coherent architectural identity, testament to an in-depth exploration of its own materiality. Between permanence and flexibility, abstraction and amenity, pragmatism and creativity.
The exhibition presents a selection of significant projects from the firm’s body of work, seen through the subjective lens of renowned photographers, following the principle “one building, one image, one photographer.” To the distanced representation of buildings inherent to each photographic work, the scenography adds reproductions of very large format, confronting the visitor with a sense of immersion.
