Baukuh

Baukuh was founded in 2004 and it is based in Milan. Baukuh produces architecture. ?Designs are independent of personal taste. No member of baukuh is ever individually responsible for any single project, each of which Is the product of the office as a whole. Working without a hierarchical structure or a stylistic dogma, baukuh produces architecture out of a rational and explicit design process. This process is based on a critical understanding of the architecture of the past. The knowledge encoded in the architecture of the past is public, and starting from this public knowledge, any architectural problem can be solved. baukuh is: Paolo Carpi (1974), Vittorio Pizzigoni (1975), Giacomo Summa (1976), Pier Paolo Tamburelli (1976) and Andrea Zanderigo (1974). Baukuh completed the House of Memory in Milan in 2015 and the flagship store of the Poretti Brewery in Induno Olona in 2019. Its current projects include the restoration of the Seminar School in Hoogstraten and the master plan for the Pupillen Site in Aalst (both in Belgium), and the strategic plan for the Student City of Tirana (Albania).
