J is for Jarmund


The Red House

The works of Jarmund / Vigsnaes Architects are a nod to Modernism but are catered, like Aalto's, to handle the Norweigan climate at times even being shaped directly by it. In their words,"every commission should be unique with reference to its site and circumstances.” Their buildings despite the response to it enivirons however remain Modern in their aesthetic.

beautiful indeed, but we've seen it all before - so much better.

even their motto is tired; "every commission should be unique with reference to its site and circumstances." yes, and a circle is round and water is wet.

have a look at jarmun's sister, kristin - at www.kjark.no - now, that's hot...
