A critical review of the works of the architects who created the fascinating Expo.02 Arteplage at Yverdon-les-Bains.
In 1996 Mateja Vehovar and Stefan Jauslin formed their own architectural office in Zurich after studying at the Columbia University New York and the ETH in Zurich respectively. Clearly marked by an interdisciplinary approach, their work revolves around landscape architecture, exhibition design, room installations, as well as architectural projects. In their work space is used as a medium to bring about specific experiences and feelings in the users. In 1999, Vehovar & Jauslin were awarded the Swiss Federal Prize for art. This publication documents 16 selected works, placing them in the context of experimental design.
Jacqueline Burckhardt is President of the Federal Commission for Art and editor of 'Parkett'.
