He is deeply interested in subversive and unconventional opportunities for architecture to burgeon. His strong belief in analytical and processual stratifications often led to the emergence of residual artefacts, errors, and placeholders. Non-linear, unfinished, and ephemeral conditions spearheaded his academic work and his desire to develop eclectic and articulate processes.
He is facile with digital tools & advanced 3D modelling/scripting. Additionally, Bastien masters fabrication tools and techniques such as 3D printing, CNC milling, and laser cutting as tools translate his experiments to the physical space.
