architecture album
Architect Audrius Ambrasas has received the National Cultural and Art Award in 2017 for for his sensible approach to creation of urban space and professional responsibility.
This album is a retrospective look at Audrius Ambrasas architects studio, which was established in 1991 and since then has exceptionally performed in the field of architectural design.
In the summer of 2013, while preparing for an exhibition about the work of the Audrius Ambrasas Architects for the Kaunas Architecture Festival, many sketches, drawings and photographs were assembled, showing various projects and their development. Over the course of time, it is easy to forget the what, when how and why. Therefore, the idea came up to make this material the basis of a book about the work of the studio, which would also serve as a mark of appreciation to all those who participated in the creation process of the projects.
