In this episode Andrew Clancy interviews Floris de Bruyn, one of three partners in the Belgian practice GAFPA.

GAFPA's is concerned with a careful unpicking of the contexts in which their buildings are situated and in they way that they are then made. This contextual read does not extend only to the physical site, but to todays vernacular of mass produced standardised building components. This is all governed by an underlying connection with the deep architectural currents of type and architype, and in a careful calibration of proportion, rhythm and order. GAFPA make spaces and forms which sit in a careful equilibrium - beautiful in its consideration and realisation. While the construction is expressive of its assembly, articulated and layered.
