In The Sun Pendant Composition 190

Gaëlle Lauriot-Prévost & Dominique Perrault

In 2008, architect Dominique Perrault described himself in eleven words: School. Rupture. Distrust. Void. Wall. Earth. Land art. Site. Place. Happiness. Mesh.

A flexible material endowed with structure, whose quality is to both exist and not exist. A rigorous yet poetic substance—at once immaterial and constructed—which the architect has used to create protective or welcoming landscapes, organize public or private spaces, and shape both natural and artificial light.
