GIUSTO VAN CAMPENHOUT
is an architecture office based in Brussels and Buenos Aires co-founded by Santiago Giusto and Nelson Van Campenhout in 2015. From these two singular contexts they work in projects that defend an architecture that forms function, articulates opposites and touches the earth gently in an attempt to build intimate relationships between life and form.

AMANIFESTO
Architecture emerges from desires of first necessity
Go dancing with a building
Architecture is built by workers
Don’t master mind architecture
Buildings are the artifacts by which architecture deploys all its potency
Buildings deteriorate
Bathrooms
spaces where the body
is in direct relation with architecture
Spaces made up of weak and diffuse boundaries
A fertile architecture
porous
close to ruins and follies
Architecture made out of concrete or wood of steel
always mixed with earth and water
Architectures as friends
Imagine you could piss in Duchamp’s Fontaine
Touch the earth gently
An architecture of consequences
What else can we do inside a building?
Where better than this place?
An architecture that emerges from an intimate relation between life and form
Architecture forms function
The next project as an unformulated need
A poem worth using
COLLABORATORS
Fanco Gilardi, Elise Duchene
Juan Cruz Begino, Charlotte de Bovy, Dario Graschinsky, Masa Bran, Thibaut de Smet, Nicolas Colman, Joyce Van Niewenhuis, Cyprien Doucy, Filip Martinic, Claire Sallets.
