About the Book

Glenn Sestig Architects is synonymous with contemporary elegance. Their work can be seen as monolithic and intuitive but always with a strong refined architectural identity. The cohesion or even clash between different exclusive and unique materials elevates this identity. Glenn Sestig, born in 1968 in Ghent, Belgium, graduated from the Henri Van De Velde institute in Antwerp and in 1999 established his practice. From the outset, his work focused on extreme precision, on a construction with such mastery of the architectural line, proportions and perspective that it is easy to forget the careful consideration that will have gone into his design and creation. In addition to the material and its interpretation, transparency and the play of reflection suggest rather than illustrate the endeavors that have resulted in the real grandeur of some projects, primarily places for public use. Glenn Sestig Architects is synonymous with contemporary elegance. Their work can be seen as monolithic and intuitive but always with a strong refined architectural identity. The cohesion or even clash between different exclusive and unique materials elevates this identity. Therefore the architect uses his own method of calculation, a sort of mental model from which flow the intelligence, equilibrium and soul of a place. Each completed work is considered as a minor work of art wherein art, fashion and music are essential sources of inspiration. The architecture is no longer a movement in time but becomes a declaration of a clear architectural vocabulary.

About the Author: Jean-Pierre Gabriel Working for three decades with the press on text writing and photography mainly in lifestyle, culinary, architecture and design magazines.

His internationally published stories based on the knowledge of history, garden landscaping, food culture, and haute cuisine. His numerous press trips gave him the opportunity to meet the greatest Michelin-Starred chefs but he always also kept in contact with the local producers behind the products. Over 40 books have been published with his contribution as an author and/or photographer. Food, Gardens Art and Architecture are also here the three pillars of his publications. As for architecture and design, he contributed to various books for the Museums of Venice, and to books on prestigious houses and interior designs. Since 2009, six of his books have been awarded by the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards. Clémande Burgevin Blachman Designer and curator Clémande Burgevin Blachman literally grew up in one of Paris's famous flea markets. Her parents had a stall selling antiques, and their nearby home was always filled with whatever objets and furnishings they couldn't fit in the store. It was early, immersive training for a career that would take her first to creating a handbag collection and opening a design gallery to consulting for brands like Chanel and Berluti, and then working as vice president of design for Calvin Klein Home. That same honed eye, love of historical pieces, and aptitude for curation have brought her to one of Vancouver's most ambitious new developments. Nick Vinson Nick Vinson runs Vinson&Co, a London-based bureau specialising in creative direction and delivering tailor-made projects to the luxury goods industry. Also known as Picky Nicky, he has contributed to Wallpaper* Magazine for the past 16 years and pens a monthly column entitled The Vinson View. He is also the design specialist for The Times Luxx.
