Architectural experimentation that presents geography as a powerful design force actively shaping space, form, and practice.

Geographism is a publication that understands geography not as a mere backdrop, but as an active force within the design process. Kunik and de Morsier's work uses architecture to investigate, transform and activate geographical conditions. Approaches range from large-scale structures to minimal architectural interventions, spanning infrastructure projects and domestic spaces. As an experimental approach to architectural practice, this book brings together fifteen years of work in one hundred selected projects.

Rather than presenting itself as a completed monograph, it is a document of an ongoing working process. Each project is presented across several pages, deconstructed and embedded within a continuous stream of ideas. This is accompanied by a polyphonic narrative comprising conversations and commentaries that offer insight into the practice from multiple perspectives.

Valentin Kunik is a Swiss architect who studied at the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). As well as running his own practice, he is involved in teaching and research, and lectures in construction. Guillaume de Morsier also studied at EPFL, as well as in Berlin and Zurich. Alongside his professional practice, he is active in academia, leading design studios at international universities. In 2010, they founded the Kuník de Morsier architecture firm in Lausanne together. The firm is characterised by a research-oriented and context-based approach to architecture and urbanism.
