Blending technical research, curiosity, and a desire to transform everyday life, the work of Coldefy – a firm founded by Thomas Coldefy and Isabel Van Haute in Lille in 2006 – spans the fields of architecture, landscape, and civic engagement. This book covers the work of a practice that, far from iconic gestures and preset formal languages, calls for an architecture that is open, inclusive, and context-sensitive – one capable of forging connections between people, nature, and the city. To mark the studio’s twentieth anniversary, this volume brings together twenty projects developed in Europe, Asia, and North America, united by an inquisitive spirit, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the exploration of materials.
