Grégory is a young architect who, in contrast to the technologized world around him, seeks to achieve a poetic statement with the simplest of means.

 

To return to simple materials, to reveal laws and processes deriving from the power of the imagination, constitutes a provocative statement in an industrialized society. A way of «dropping out» which is by no means a denial of society, but which instead asserts a moral claim: the subjectified sensibility in its objectified authenticity reflects a natural recollection of environmental phenomena, both universal and individual, global and local.
