Founded in 1981 in Paris, Brunet Saunier Architecture is a French leader in the design of hospitals and large-scale public buildings. The publicationBrunet Saunier Architecture. Monospace and Simplexty is much more than a monograph. It is also a professional reference work, as hospital buildings make up a large portion of the showcased projects. Over the last ten years the architectural office has been developing a successful concept known as &lMonospace&r.
The bookBrunet Saunier Architecture. Monospace and Simplexty discusses and analyzes this concept in detail, presenting trueto- scale floor plans, cross-sections, architectural views, and other information. The Monospace concept – which is based on a process of creative reduction down to essentials, i.e. &lsimplexity&r – is adaptive rather than normative or prescriptive, and based on probabilities rather than determinism.
