Office Kersten Geers David Van Severen

While every attempt of making architecture seems to drift off in rhetorics of programmatic organization and ironic provocation, form and space as such have become a rare good. In our projects we try to counter this by making direct and precise spatial proposals, formal compositions without rhetoric. This literal architecture aims for a phenomenological experience, perhaps despite of its program.

Office Kersten Geers David Van Severen was founded in 2002 by David Van Severen and Kersten Geers.
