Atelier Kempe Thill 2 (Bilingual edition)

Flexible Use – Timeless Buildings

The practice of Atelier Kempe Thill is renowned for their neutral and economic as well as enjoyable and innovative designs in architecture and urban design. To achieve this, the architects do not shy away from endless discussion with their clients and an unconventional use of materials. “Specific Neutrality” is what they call the balance between unique designs and an architecture that is as flexible as possible since publishing their design manifesto on collective housing in 2004. In today’s world, where the economic situation, the demand for spaces and their use can rapidly change, this approach is more relevant than ever. In their second monograph, the two architects present 23 projects from the last 12 years, complemented by thematic essays by the authors and well-known experts in the field of architecture.
