Valode and Pistre Architects

The work of this Europe-based architectural design firm is an important addition to the Images Publishing Group\''s "Master Architect Series", which showcases the most significant works of today\''s leading international architects. For the firm\''s founders and principals, Denis Valode and Jean Pistre, each project they embark on is "a social act for both client and user, an act based upon original research and reflection, an act of creation in response to a specific program and site". This philosophy and the firm\''s exacting requirements for quality in design and construction have ensured that Valode and Pistre\''s work has been in constant demand around the world. This monograph (the first of the firm\''s work in English language) bears testament to their international renown, detailing major works in their portfolio, which includes commercial, retail, industrial and cultural projects.
