Receive a free copy of the second issue of ‘AMag PT’, a new series exclusively dedicated to Portuguese architecture, together with the purchase of ‘AMag’ 31 on Jo Taillieu, Jan Vermeulen and Graux & Baeyens. This second portuguese special features Barbas Lopes Architects. AMAG 31 features three Belgian firms that possess the same outstanding sense of awareness, a deep respect for the locale, and an extensive rigour in their pursuit of the best solution for each project. Jo Taillieu frequently explores the relationship between architecture and nature, fusing principles drawn from modernism with organic elements. Jan Vermeulen presents simple, clear, and rational geometrical forms in his work, as well as a carefully considered use of silent materials, light, and transparency throughout all spaces. Graux & Baeyens responds to the context, striking a balance between traditional and contemporary principles.
