Vijf jaar geleden richtten Hannes Van Damme en Benoit Vandeputte het architectenbureau Van Damme - Vandeputte op. Vandaag kunnen zij al terugkijken op een indrukwekkend portfolio met een breed scala van architecturale projecten: residentiele nieuwbouw op maat van de klant, duurzame en kwaliteitsvolle renovaties, interieurinrichtingen met bijzondere detailafwerking, kantoren en bedrijfsites met onder andere veel aandacht voor de integratie in de ruimtelijke context, en restauraties van al dan niet beschermd erfgoed. Een voorlopig hoogtepunt is de verhuis van hun kantoor naar een schitterend gerenoveerd historisch pand in Izegem.

In dit klassevolle en met de grootste zorg samengesteld en vormgegeven salontafelboek presenteren Van Damme - Vandeputte niet alleen een selectie architecturale creaties, maar ook de betekenisvolle aspecten van het proces en de filosofie achter hun oeuvre. Het boek bestaat uit drie delen: in 'conversation & inspiration' worden de architecten geinterviewd over hun architectuur en inspiratiebronnen, en worden die bronnen ook in beeld gebracht. Deel 2 'works' presenteert 15 projecten in prachtige beelden van Cafeine. 'Looking ahead', tot slot, brengt renders en schetsen van lopende, nog onvoltooide projecten. Dit unieke boek is als een verlengde van het architecturale oeuvre van Van Damme - Vandeputte, en exemplarisch voor de passie en toewijding waarmee ze elk van hun projecten realiseren.

Five years ago, Hannes Van Damme and Benoît Vandeputte founded the architectural fim Van Damme - Vandeputte. Today, they can already look back on an impressive portfolio with a wide range of architectural projects: new residential constructions tailored to the client's needs, sustainable and high-quality renovations, interior design with special detailing, offices and corporate sites built with, among other things, great attention to the integration into the surroundings, and restorations of
(protected) heritage sites. A provisional highlight is the move of their office to a beautifully renovated historic building in Izegem.
In this classy coffee-table book, compiled and designed with the greatest care, Van Damme - Vandeputte not only present a selection of architectural creations, but also shed light on the meaningful aspects
of the process and philosophy behind their oeuvre. The book consists of 3 parts: in 'conversation & inspiration', the architects are interviewed about their architecture and what inspires them, and photos of these sources of inspiration are included. In part 2, 'works', 15 projects are extensively presented in beautiful images by Cafeine. Finally, 'looking ahead' is devoted to ongoing and currently unfinished projects, with renders and sketches. This unique book is like an extension of the architectural oeuvre of Van Damme - Vandeputte, and exemplifies the passion and dedication with which the architectural firm realises each of its projects.
