the mixedmedia visual arts studio gonzales has made a short movie of ‘house karla en koen’ for belgian firm DMOA architects of leuven. it is a family portrait framed in their own home. the video integrates the concept of architecture, interior and landscape designed by DMOA. much attention went to the creation of the right atmosphere for the inhabitants. during the realization process, the relation between the architect and the resident family has grown intensely. this personal connection had to radiate from the movie. gonzales has translates the interactions between building and occupant with a surreal touch. WATCH it below.
