Canevas

Architects: Canevas

Description: Canevas is an inter-professional company of architects and engineers created in 2004.
This company has taken over the architectural activities of the greisch office; Canevas associates have all worked with René Greisch in the Greisch design office.
The company, based in Liège, in the Liège Science Park, employs around fifteen people: engineer-architects, architects, engineers and drafting technicians.
The architecture of Canevas is guided by the search for economy of means, simplicity and structural efficiency. It is characterized by the concern to use a limited number of materials, simple, economical, available and durable, formal purification for the benefit of functional efficiency and the careful and elegant resolution of the smallest detail. It favors the use of local techniques, skills and resources.
For each of its achievements, Canevas uses its architectural and technical skills, its knowledge of materials and their respective qualities, its sensitive approach to the natural landscape and the built environment, its reasoning in terms of program and distribution of spaces as well as his artistic judgment.
