SYNOPSIS
Dominique Perrault combines geometry and geography to create precise, monumental architectural spaces, where volumes rise or pierce the ground with precision, offering an extreme simplicity that serves as a neutral setting for social interaction. His work, which stands apart from both the urban and natural context and the trends of his time, combines material ingenuity, a sensitivity to the landscape and formal rigour.
READ MORE
Projects such as the Hôtel Berlier, the Magic Box in Madrid and the competitions in Spain illustrate his ability to push every concept to its limits, oscillating between abstraction and sculptural gesture, and demonstrate the artistic boldness that characterises his approach, which is both timeless and deeply rooted in the geographical context.
