Beschreibung
The distinctive houses designed by Canadian architecture studio, Omar Gandhi Architects over the past fifteen years offer thoughtful responses to the landscape. Original and imaginative, these are buildings that seek to understand the land and its context, rather than impose upon it. Cultural sustainability lies at the heart of the practice's design philosophy, while each project draws inspiration from the hills, mountains, and rugged coastlines of Canada. With offices in Halifax, Toronto, and Berlin, Omar Gandhi Architects has developed an acclaimed portfolio of residential projects alongside cultural commissions. Every commission begins with a careful study of its site, resulting in buildings that share a commitment to natural materials, craftsmanship and a strong connection between inside and outside. Lightly informed by vernacular traditions, these are distinctly twenty-first-century homes and cabins designed for contemporary living. Living in the Landscape: Houses by Omar Gandhi Architects. presents twenty-two residential projects, accompanied by an introduction to the practice and its design process. Featuring specially commissioned photography that places each house within its wider setting, the book is both a beautifully illustrated monograph and a compelling survey of one of Canada's most distinctive contemporary architectural practices.
