Map Office Biography

Founded in 1997 by Laurent Gutierrez and Valerie Portafaix, MAP OFFICE moves the boundaries of traditional architectural practice with work that ranges from territorial and urban planning to gallery installations. With maps, master plans, statistical data, essays, video and photographs, they engage ideas of spatiality and mobility in contemporary territories, and more precisely examine the mechanisms of production and distribution and their impact on local geography and environment.
