Yet their portfolio also comprises major office structures and buildings for culture, as well as urban design proposals. In ten conversations with Swiss-based architects, historians and researchers, partners Jonathan Sergison, Stephen Bates, and Mark Tuff have discussed current and timeless questions and aspects of architecture and construction.
