...is an experimental design lab exploring the visual construct in architecture.
A conceptual investigation, digital and analogue, of the apparatus of drawing, challenging boundary with drawing as a work of art, in research that is both architectural and artistic but never an end in itself. The work questions and reiterates the mission of drawing through continuous research, intense interrogation, and devotion to craft. It explores the graphic theoria, praxis, and poiesis of architectural verbalisation as process of drawing.
The studios’ work is not limited by the normal conventions of architectural delineation, rather a representation of different types of explorations, material, connections, notions; a body of drawings that transverses a wider visualisation and verbalisation of the inherent reasons underlying architecture and the built environment. Some drawings start more as discursive investigations, some are visual records, some hint, others never reveal their architectural subject. In all, they open up new frontiers of the imagination whilst embracing, and never discarding, the power and potential of both analogue and digital drawing.
