PEI Architects is proud to be a recipient of one of the prestigious Tucker Design Awards. The award was given for the use of stone in the design of the Chateau Lynch-Bages New Bordeaux Winery. The Judges commented “Liked how it was very minimal. The tonality of that really broad wall was a very good design move in the selection of stone and the jointing. The crafting of the louvered-style base is powerful and unique. In its spatial context, there’s a relationship of the new receiving and acknowledging the old as it casts shadows on the façade. A successful consideration of the existing structure when crafting and addition”.
