Summary:

"Catching the very first instant of nascent space, Making Architecture shows how young architects educated at the ETH Zurich develop a relationship to the substance of architecture; how they unfold this relationship gracefully, concentrating on the embedded, inherent filigree or massive potential contained in materials. The publication unveils creations without scale, fragile architectures and subtle objects; reopening a field thought to be thoroughly explored."--P. 4 of cover.
