Their architecture can be seen as providing an alternative to current architectural production: while many contemporary projects focus attention on the elaborated form as the development of a new architectural language, for them this issue is a subsidiary one from the outset:

‘freeing oneself from the form – building from the inside outwards’ (Lacaton & Vassal)

Despite, or as a result of, this stance Lacaton & Vassal have excited the attention of the media and specialists on an international level, working their way with their projects to the top league of impulse-giving architects on a global level.
