The new generation of French architects seem to emerge gradually, after a long silence, becoming more active and interesting. This summer we brought the work of the Swiss team NOMAD. Now, equally fresh ideas, the team "FREAKS freearchitects" formed by Guillaume Aubry, Cyril Gauthier y Yves Pasquet.

Sur Mesure is an installation by French studio "FREAKS freearchitects" (Guillaume Aubry, Cyril Gauthier and Yves Pasquet.). This installation shows how stuck huge dimension arrows onto the facade of the French Communist Party Headquarters building in Paris (by Oscar Niemeyer) in a bid to show the general public about the importance of architecture.

Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer ended the building, in the sixties during his period in France. The building has a glazed curtain wall by French architect Jean Prouvé, on which the installation is deployed.

Installation made in-situ, by "FREAKS freearchitects", edited and directed by Patox commission from Convention de l'Ordre des Architectes "Le Droit à l'Architecture".

Organized by Conseil National de l'Ordre des Architectes.

Date: December 1, 2011

Site: at the Espace Oscar Niemeyer
