In Detail. The Work of cepezed

In architecture, the detail seldom gets the attention it deserves. Connections are often unsystematic junctions of materials that are hidden from view by additional devices. The firm cepezed, however, considers the detail an essential part of every design and therefore detailing as an integral part of the design process. Indeed clear, well-considered and visually attractive details are a crucial characteristic of cepezed’s ingenious architecture, which is surprisingly natural and human. The Detail presents unique details in an extensive selection of cepezed projects and discusses their place and significance within the total design. Using informative drawings and photos it offers directly applicable detail solutions at various levels of scale. The result is a handbook for students and fellow architects, featuring directly applicable solutions and ideas for the effective use of the detail as an essential instrument of architectural design.
