Holistische Architektur : BC Architects, BC Studies und BC Materials, Brüssel
Author
Abstract
Through the interaction between three independent but symbiotic organizations BC Architects, BC Studies and BC Materials lastingly alter the understanding of architecture. What began in Burundi with a clay brick building and workshops for constructing has developed into a holistic architecture and an approach that is manifested in the most recent project, the Atelier Luma in Arles (together with Assemble from London).The building is a prototype and research project in one, where new materials are developed and used for building. In contrast the headquarters of BC Materials is a simple hangar in the canal zone of Brussels and is the meeting place of a new organization where knowledge and expertise about circular, local and organic construction are shared. It offers a framework for conducting experiments on architects’ future role in the building process.
