El Croquis 224: Christian Kerez (2015–2024) Ultimate Spaces

This monographic issue examines a decade of recent work by acclaimed Swiss architect Christian Kerez. Presented are eighteen projects distributed around the globe, including the China Academy of Arts, Office Building Lyon Confluence, Textile Museum St. Gallen, high-rises in the areas of Nantes, EuroRennes, and Bahnhof Zoo, and various other works such as car parks in Bahrain, a footbridge in China, and smaller-scale residential designs. The examination of the Zurich-based architect’s recent portfolio is complemented by two conversations: one between Kerez and architect Smiljan Radić, and the other with Kerez and architectural theorist and professor Stephan Trüby.
