Didier Fi偂a Faustino: Architecture for Disquiet Bodies (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9783037787120)

"Faustino has anticipated numerous contemporary trends and operating methods, pushing the boundaries of architecture as a whole." -Elle D馗or

This monograph offers a comprehensive overview of more than 25 years of unique creations by French Portuguese artist-architect Didier Fi偂a Faustino (born 1968), who works at the intersection of the body and architectural space. Since 1995, Faustino has been developing a multifaceted approach ranging from installation to experimentation, from visual art to the creation of multisensory spaces and buildings.
The publication is divided into three main parts. The first is designed as a magazine with fake advertisements created by Faustino's Bureau des M駸architectures. The second focuses on the agency's manifesto projects. The third part shows the realizations of these projects. In between these sections are the agency's manifesto texts, as well as contributions from various authors analyzing the work of Faustino and his team.
