Perfil
Astrid Pudszuhn — uma arquiteta formada entre culturas.
Arquiteta Dipl.-Ing. formada na Universidade Bauhaus de Weimar, trabalha com um equilíbrio sensível entre desenho formal e escolha de cores e materiais — e com uma longa afinidade pelo Brasil.
Her path runs across Germany, France, Brazil, and the United States: construction planning and detailing for commercial and residential buildings in Berlin and Dresden, kindergartens in Salvador da Bahia, the renovation of historic fabric, and international competitions. The interests that recur are housing, schools and children's spaces, cultural buildings, and careful work with what already exists. Trabalhos recentes (2004–presente) serão adicionados

Areas of expertise
Filosofia de projeto & método
Como a prática pensa — não apenas o que produz.
Each project begins with listening: to the place, to the client, to the constraints, and to the silent possibilities of space.
Context
Reading the site, climate, and culture first. The place sets the terms; the building answers them.
Light
Daylight is treated as a material — measured, oriented, and shaped to give each room its character across the day.
Proportion
Scale and rhythm carry the feeling of a space long before finishes do. Proportion is the quiet discipline underneath.
Materiality
Few materials, honestly used and left to age. Texture and weight do more than ornament.
Human experience
Sequence, threshold, and comfort — how it feels to arrive, move through, and stay.
Technical coordination
Ideas are protected through drawing and detail, so what is built is what was intended.
Serviços
