 | Greisch office has a research and development department. It is in close contact with universities where several of its members are on the teaching staff. At all times, it supervises final degree projects on new fields, and hosts trainees. This research culture that has developed within Greisch office and the presence of very sophisticated computer equipment enables it to move into new fields, and devote the time necessary to discover original solutions in the most varied fields: stadium roof, ultra-light canopy, telecommunications aerial, where the search for the greatest structural economy guides our invention. The discretion of our work, the absence of a demonstrative character, the economic use of resources, the search for a kind of self-evident simplicity of structure form the basic principles of the attitude of Greisch office when dealing with these projects, and also form part of the team's culture.
The art of the engineer lies in eschewing the desire to demonstrate how clever an invention is, so that a non-expert finds it almost obvious when it fulfils its function, and being careful not to show off all the amazing feats of which it is capable. > references |
