Summary:

As demonstrated in this book, the work of Materia is stripped down, with clean corners and straightforward connections. Spaces appear straightforward, but are layered with complexities through light, shadow and surface; materials are chosen for their natural textures and colors, creating contrast, patterns, reflections, aromas and emotional and visual temperatures. In this way, Materiaœs architecture emerges: as a set of intentions present in every corner, every line. Jorge Comensal and Lisa Findley describe, from their multidisciplinary perspectives, Materiaœs work; four themes group projects of different typologies which are represented through images of the processes and construction details; a final project section contains descriptive texts with plans and images of the finished works.
