false mirror office gathers five architects who share the Polytechnic School of Genoa as a common background.
While collaborating with leading European firms, its members share the interest for selected themes of major relevance, spanning from disciplinary topics to unrelated matters. If architecture design combines them in the form of a conclusive reasoning, theoretical research and debate set them up for re-questioning.
Believing that new only originates as a reaction to the existing, false mirror office re-discovers the past as the present, re-signifies high as mass culture, re-values forms and functions.
As a matter of fact, false mirror office mis-represents Architecture.
