Dick Home
- Troyes, France
“Basically I need a story, a family, a place to prove the specificity, the meaning of my projects. Yet, I believe that what characterizes a good architecture, it is its high level of specificity. Now this house has a very clear sense, it is also very special: it exists as it is because a family has desired it so, because an architect wanted that its forms hold, because an administration was opposed to it. It is made of bricks because it is located in Troyes, it is V-shaped because like this, we see a field and not the buildings around it… It is very, very specific.”
