A competition entry for a museum in St.Petersburg, which I was a part of at Snøhetta, commemorating the Siege and Defense of Leningrad just got a nice little write up at Chroniques Architecture. Unfortunately we didn’t take out this one!
Operating System / Opportunity Space

Finalist, Van Alen Institute Opportunity Space Competition 2016
As a temporary mobile structure with a progressive social agenda, strict physical constraints, and so many stakeholders, a response to the brief could only really have a lasting positive impact if it truly embraced flexibility. Rather than a statement of architectural form which gives representation to the raw humanity of the refugee crisis, we have designed a flexible, modular system which gives representation to the opportunities, relationships and connections it creates - for migrants, local government, private interest, and the citizens of Malmö. Instead of re-producing the traditional bureaucratic model of one institution at one location, OS proposes to juxtapose three agents at one site, creating a rotating collage of events. Each of the three OS units will be temporarily appropriated by a governmental agency, organisation, company or small upstarting restaurant. Potentially configurable in hundreds of different arrangements, OS offers an infrastructure for social encounters and co-existence by conflating cultural events with support, networking and education. It can for example allow the visitor to attend a lecture on how to start a company, discuss possible courses with a university counsellor, or check out the ongoing Iranian film festival while trying some newly baked pirogues. Like any operative system, OS provides a platform for activities, without defining the outcome. In the end, the encounters, discussions, sensations and knowledge produced here will therefore be the result of a unique mixture of the different agents and visitors engaged.
Great to see that the drawing structures I developed with Hannes Frykholm in 2011 at UC Berkeley are finally gaining traction, with this one by Vince Barry from the Cork Centre for Architectural Education!

Income Inequality in Chicago by Herwig Scherabon
he images are abstract diagrams of these cities and show a high resolution matrix of blocks. The height of these blocks corresponds to the income in the respective output area. The resolution of the grid is smaller than the actual census tracts, in order to retain the visual footprint of the city’s street-grid.

Almost a month after its opening at the 2016 Venice Architecture Biennale, it is nice to see the Awaroa Lighthouse model getting some love on Instagram!
Also interesting to notice how people generally tend to photograph the model from one of two different angles...

Happy to announce that our proposal for the future of financial disaster tourism, the Toxic Asset Horror Cabinet, will be published in Fairytales Volume 3. Broadly, the project suggests that foreclosed homes from across the USA be shipped to Manhattan as a kind of open-air museum/memorial for the Global Financial Crisis of 2008.
Tasked with producing both a series of images and a piece of text, we wrote a screenplay to narrate the project. Given New York City’s tendency to rescript its idea of entertainment, it seemed appropriate.
It is also nice to finally get a definitive publication for a project which has been incubating in various forms since 2012 - so cheers to the team at A Blank Space Project for having us on board.
More info can be found here.

I have been chipping away at this for the past few months... as my old thesis supervisor said - ‘however long you think a model will take, multiply that amount of time by two’.
