H&V Holoffe-Vermeersch Architecture
- Description
H&V was established in 2000 and views its projects as lending its plume to writing everyday chronicles on space sharing. The agency is involved in small as well as large-scale projects. Our approach prompts private and public clients alike to pause and reflect on a shared environment in which architecture is integrated as a cultural asset and added value.
PRE-TEXTE.
Amid the cacophony of forms brought on by consumption, the topic continues to be shaped and moulded by the constant barrage of TV and advertising images, caught between the need for presentism and a High Environmental Quality ethic.
Looking back in hindsight, classical as well as modern architectural codes in respect of buildings valued for their own sake, materials for the materials' sake or styles for the styles' sake have hit on their limits.
MORE WITH LESS.
Between memory and landscape, H&V views what it does as a reset that sparks an architectural signature that is deliberately restrained yet generous and optimistic. As such, our conceptual design process applies as a matter of course to:
- Considering all areas, micro or macro, without preconceptions.
- Adopting a more revealing geographical reading of the links between subjects and situations.
- Focusing on the minimum resources required in order to arrive at collective understanding.
"Doing more with less" is a work logic that we adopted very early on and which we have upheld to this very day.
