Our work…
...explores the removal of barriers - focusing on design quality, economics and systems of delivery for creating Architecture as a product,
…is not “individual painstaking self-expression" but is driven by frugal mass consumerism, a modern technological life and a post-materialism society,
…is ignited by Michelangelo, Warhol, Christo + Jeanne Claude, Henry Ford and Blue Man Group,
…engages a construction methodology of pre-fabrication where the architect concurrently informs, and answers to, a collaborative team focused on product design, development, fabrication and installation,
…demands perpetual research, investigation and testing of materials/systems that are global, disposable, mass-produced and/or originally created with non-architectural intent,
…is composed of a liberated palette of re-arranged/re-deployed/re-applied objects and systems,
…fulfills a hybrid-vigor sensibility yielding new formal constructs, structural systems, transformations of function and spatial arrangements,
…liberates “high design” level architecture with predictable end results, at an affordable price point.
