Our project at the moment formally is about the nesting and interrelationship of characters, not to each other, but to a unifying structure. The characters are related in some way to each other, but the connection more so exists between the construct and the characters. The construct (box) exists as a contextual and ever-present monolith. The monolith exists to provide structure and context to the characters while also operating as a unifying infrastructure.
The general programs of the objects are generally divided into 4 categories: those being artistic oriented, waste stream oriented, homeless oriented, or ecologically oriented. We are proposing that characters exist nested physically and metaphorically in a poche, or construct. Poche, something that is typically understood as a “non-human” landscape, is now, not only visible, but accessible. The boundaries between the typical dichotomies of architecture, those being, space and matter, begin to get deconstructed.
