Flexible Use - Timeless Buildings

The architectural firm Atelier Kempe Thill is renowned for designs that are neutral and economical, as well as enjoyable and innovative. To achieve this, André Kempe and Oliver Thill and their team do not shy away from boundless discussions with their clients and an unconventional use of materials. ""Specific Neutrality"" is what they have called their balance between unique designs and an architecture that is as flexible as possible, ever since publishing their design manifesto on collective housing in 2004. In today's world, where the economic situation can rapidly change, along with the demand for spaces and their use, this approach is more relevant than ever. In their second monograph, the two architects present twenty-three projects from the last twelve years, complemented by thematic essays written by Kempe and Thill and by well-known experts in the field of architecture.
