Office Profile

The inquiries addressed by Esch Sintzel revolve around the creation of places. «Place» is space that is experienced – assimilated, laden with significance and bound to time. Therefore it is no coincidence that housing constitutes one of the main focuses of Esch Sintzel’s work in that no other architectural undertaking intervenes more directly in life – in the life of the city, of the community, of the individual.
In the process a designer encounters very similar questions in the microcosm of the «spatial fabric» of an apartment as those found in the «Tessuto» of a city. This fractal singularity of housing construction and, equally, the interpretation of architectural structure as a fabric have inspired Esch Sintzel to evolve structures in which regularity and playfulness converge.
