Archigraphics | Blurring the lines between architecture and graphic design

The evolution of constraints and constructive techniques relating to building facades is increasingly influencing the expression of the envelope, which is progressively conceived as a skin with its own abstract, graphic, and visual qualities, to the detriment of the traditional expression of constructional elements. In our practice, we are interested in the integration of visual communication elements in our architecture, which we call “archigraphics.” Since 2002, we have incorporated graphics designers into our studio who collaborates with us on developing the graphic dimensions of the practice and works actively with RDR design teams.
