“The architecture of Jean-Marc Ibos and Myrto Vitart is measured, accurate in its insertion and impeccable in its execution. But this is only one facet of their work. Their perfectly controlled artefacts are not just functional, rational objects. They are also very precise, efficient and active “urban sensors”. They are designed to elicit lasting emotions and fuel our imagination. Whilst working within the discipline of architecture and its fundamentals – plan, section, façade – and maintaining the focus on functional requirements, these architects open their projects up to a new and what might be called ‘fictional’ dimension.”
