A Conversation with Adam Caruso
Adam Caruso was interviewed for OASE Journal's edition on modernity. Emailing with the issue's editors, Tom Avermaete and Hans Teerds, he discusses the nuances of what it means to be 'modern' and how to engage with a cities architectural codes and conventions while adding to its definition of history.
These ideas are explored in relation to Caruso St John's Bremer Landesbank, Escher-Wyss Platz Office building and the Canterbury Cathedral Organ Loft.
