Arrhov Frick

96 pages, engl./ital.

Founded in Stockholm in 2010 by Johan Arrhov (1979) and Henrik Frick (1977), Arrhov Frick has received a number of international accolades and was recently selected to redesign the new Stockholm Museum of Architecture.
Since 2021 Johan Arrhov has been a visiting professor at the Academy of Architecture in Mendrisio, Switzerland. In his design studios Arrhov addresses central issues in the contemporary architectural debate, such as the need to build in a simple, environmentally friendly way, and the search for a dialogue between comfort and beauty in architecture.
The result of this continuous research and the activities conducted with students at the Academy (including the design of an exhibition at the Teatro dell'architettura at Mendrisio in 2024), this volume presents the most significant aspects of Arrhov and Frick's work, such as their concern for the environment, the interpretation of architecture as an ever-changing and never-ending process, and the aspiration to simplicity in construction as a mirror of simplicity in life.
