April 2008. 0300TV visited Sofia von Ellrichshausen and Mauricio Pezo [Pezo von Ellrichshausen Architects*] and four of their recent residential projects in Concepción, Chile: Parr House, Poli House, Wolf House and Fosc House**.
So what’s the big deal? PvE Architects may have the recipe for operating in developing contexts like -not-so-emerging-anymore Chile.
It’s been almost eight years since they’ve been established in Concepcion, Chile and started to experiment with their subtly restrained method of work formats, trial and error, between art and architecture. Operating in unstable conditions, PvE Architect’s work demonstrates that there’s no room here for grand gestures. It’s all about searching for small ideas, small approximations, which –in addition- will conform the final oeuvre.
0300TV presents Pezo von Ellrichshausen Architects: Context & Work System, featuring an interview to PvE Architects and footage of Forestal and I Was There Installations plus Parr, Poli, Wolf and Fosc houses.
