Submission #362 | Kelly Deak: Architectural Allusion of the Everyday Object — “The material panel system alludes towards an everyday object, the button, which is used to impose or imply formal association. Here the button is looked at in terms of materiality, not the physical, but rather its functionality and properties. The button-like panel systems consist of a button case, free-flowing joints, and low resolution projected shadows.”
Submission #154 | Timothy Percival: Where Light Ends — Where Light Ends approaches our relationship with space as a philosophical inquiry. Built upon architectural scenes, the impact of such environments form the subject of the work.
Submission #125 | Giada Maria Pillitteri: Disassemble and Reassemble Palermo North #19 — My thesis is insert in a currently research from 2007 (professors: Roberto Collovà/Gaetano Licata) about the potential of the transformation in the expansion north area of Palermo. Starting from observations about the study area emerges a North Palermo shaped by a double face: the facades show themselves as the “representative’s fronts”, the “planned” side of buildings and almost originals, who oppose the backs, internal and hidden parts that, changed over time, include heterogeneous "additions", arising from the needs of the inhabitants.
Submission #122 | Asbjørn Staunstrup Lund: The Fairy Tale Of Maersk — The project encapsulates a retrospective proposal for Danish shipping magnate Maersk Mc-Kinney Møller. How a sustainable legacy could have been created in the heart of Copenhagen as an alternative to Maersk’s donation of the Copenhagen Opera House which was built in 2000.
Jonathan Forbes: Dramatic Structure — "My proposal is conceptualised around the notion of storytelling as a methodology of design practice and reconciliation with the first people. Through the telling’s of the “dreamtime” the first people could craft stories through verbal communication. Therefore how can we craft a story through a physical sense? The SoBE attempts to embrace this ideology to create a physical and meta-physical narrative for the students and staff who occupy it, creating a more personalised and intimate experience."
Sara Ibrahim and Suzan Ibrahim: Hyperbuilding — A Hyperbuilding that embodies a taxonomy of precedent floor plans. This calls for an architecture that is completely inclusive, temporary and permanent, monumental and miniature, historic yet advanced, but most importantly a cultural, economic, and a social experiment of a vertical conglomerate.
Graham Rose: Shifting Spirals — Essentially we had to create a folly that was semi habitable for people or any creature depending on your design. We had to utilize two design approaches that we had been working with all semester. The project was initially limited to an 18’x18’x18’ cube but we were allowed to break the barrier if it was necessary and made sense.
Adrian Ianetti: Extracted Pods — This semester was focused on creating formal systems through the application of rules. We created our own rules and applied those rules to form space. The final project is a result of hybridizing two separate systems to create a proposal for an architectural folly.
Federico Fauli: Nobody's Land — Nobody’s Land is a project born from an apocalyptic concept. It represents the lack of a vision, the appeal for a utopian renewal and the constant search for new ways of living. A project set in the nowadays Bangladesh reality, in a site located in the South-West area of Dhaka, surrounded by the Buriganga river.
