We utilise models generally as a massing tool to consolidate the form of a building. We twin the practice of model making with digital design to combine the speed of digital design with the tactility of physical model. We also use the models as a record of projects and as the ability to see a body of work in a constant form.
We have used craft board as a consistent material to reduce to form. Materials hand made using scalpel, card and glue.
Where are we? is a proposed talk series, focussing on critical urban issues run by our studio. The talks will be in the form of discourse between an architect and non-architect specialist on the subject matter. The location of the talk will change depending upon the topic, but will occur in a public place. To facilitate the talks, we are proposing a portable (in a 6x4ft trailer) structure that can manage seating, projection of images, a marker of the event - we will develop ideas for this in the form of models to test and refine ideas and details.
We are about to start the development using models to test ideas and develop a system. We will report on how these progress though this exhibition series.
