Description:
The OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen fonds, circa 2004-2015, documents the firm’s work on three projects: Tower and Square (unbuilt, Rotterdam, the Netherlands, 2004), Drying Hall Arbor (Hulshout, Belgium, 2013), and Villa Buggenhout (Buggenhout, Belgium, 2010). The fonds consists of born-digital and textual materials, as well as several models. The digital files include three project directories packaged as .zip files: “CCA-office09-tower&square”; “CCA-office29-villa buggenhout”; “CCA-office117-Arbor”. Each directory is divided into two subdirectories titled “working folder” and “final materials". The “working folder” subdirectory is organized either chronologically per phase or per file type. The “final materials” subdirectory contains the final project files, including presentation drawings, photos, and final versions of the collages. The transfer also includes two copies of the project credits in .pages and .pdf file formats.

Rather than adopting a postmodern attitude or evoking past discussions and historical architectural forms, Go Hasegawa, Kersten Geers, and David Van Severen address contemporary issues in their work while remaining in dialogue with history.
