The first monograph on Tham & Videgård Arkitekter, an architectural duo that has become leaders of a new generation of Swedish architects in a mere ten years of working together. Though the pair nods to vernacular Nordic tradition with the use of wood, painted floors and decorative tile, their look is lucid, international and playfully geometric. This volume documents residences, offices, university buildings and schools with dynamic photography, renderings, schematics and models. As Hans Ibelings notes in one of the book's essays say, the team is neither stuck in the functionalist past nor preoccupied with a conceptual image. Printed on special lightweight paper.
