In this book, French architects Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal, winners of the prestigious 2021 Pritzker Prize, present their work through three concepts, each illustrated by a specific type of content. In a conversation with Enrique Walker, they explain the thinking behind their entire body of work, particularly through one of their most significant projects: the Palais de Tokyo in Paris.
Free Space:
The ideal space, always conceived in maximum terms: spatial generosity, efficiency, and comfort. This predetermined intention is a fundamental principle for Lacaton and Vassal—one that is no longer questioned and forms the foundation of all their projects.
