MECK ARCHITECTS - Munich, Germany
DESCRIPTION
"Meck Architects, Andreas Meck and Axel Frühauf along with a team of 10-15 employees, are architects of vocation and passion who realize large and small projects with inspiration, perfectionism and hard work.
When facing difficult constraints, Meck Architects masters them together with good builders. They develop simple and clear solutions that are thought through to the smallest detail. They build and work for the people who lives in the homes they design. Their projects have atmosphere and spaces that surprise - they are only satisfied when the built space satisfies all of the senses.
In the design and development of buildings it is not only the human scale, but also the inner-spatial sense and urban context that influences Meck Architects. The careful handing of the place and examination of the material conditions, along with the cultural and spiritual context is of great importance. For Meck Architects, a balance between pure functionality and emotional design quality is important and necessary. The construction, the material, the form and the space are proportionate to each other and form a unity. The space and mood are shaped by the interplay of proportion, light, material and color. Their work is about the holistic approach: the whole, which is more than the sum of its parts.” Meck Architects
