Archwerk+Formafatal

Archwerk
n addition to classical architectural practice, we also deal with design and execution of our own experimental structures, based on constructional and technological simplicity, natural materials and site-specific design.

Our structures are realized as a physical experiment. We make them often by our own hands and with a low budget. Our main ambition is to enrich the specific place and community by the Architectural Work instead of effort to completly change the perception of space and the borders of archtecture.

One of our goals is to create an open creative group inspired by medieval builder workshops, which will be capable to design and realize high-quality architectural works serving the cultivation (not only) of Czech landscape and society.
