This issue of a.mag features fantastic projects by the French studios BAST and GENS.
Established in Toulouse in 2013, Bureau Architectures Sans Titre (BAST) operates through research-led work with an &lanonymous approach&r. Despite this deliberate lack of attribution, every BAST project has a distinct character. The GENS group, founded in 2009 and currently with offices in Nancy and Paris, defines itself as seeking to exploit what it calls the &leconomy of the project&r. These two offices represent the new generation, and their production reflects how collective work is valued. Through a selection built works, the magazine explores an architecture less marked by the use of any formal language, but rather the methodological approach to solving each project.
