Book excerpt: Is the idea of an environment in architecture intrinsically reduced to 'environmental architecture', with its data gathering, percentages, and product lines, like solar panels and catalogues offering insulation solutions? For Ostos and Jackowski the answer is a resolute no, and instead they seek and endorse an alternative reading of 'environment' in which the brutal and lyrical are juxtaposed through a number of visually compelling narrative architectural explorations.
