BXB Studio
Bogusław Barnaś worked at Foster + Partners and Make Architects before setting up his studio in Krakow in 2009. His own work splices the forms and crafts-based approach of traditional Polish architecture with an angular, expressive modernity, as in the Artist's House. Barnaś hopes to build the studio's reputation as 'a place where precision, aesthetics, economics and sustainable development go together'.
