Arbnor Murati an architect known as the anti-confirmative critic, intellect, and not feeling, is the basis for his projects. The latter are distinguished by a special programmatic, structural, and iconographic revelation, contained in themself.
Conceives architecture as a whole and long process of autopoetic reflection, which helps introspective work during a project to find the Internal Order contained within. In short words, meaning if the architecture does not have a constructive detail, then simply it doesn’t have an idea and vice versa. In his opinion a good architectural design is a naive one.
Arbnori in 2011 was featured in the magazines WERK, bauen und Wohnen where he was announced as one of the best architects close to the 30s in Switzerland.
