BSc Architecture 4th Year
Typeworks Printing Press
The fascinating history of printing looks back as early as the middle of the 15th century when the revolutionary discovery was made. Despite the 6 centuries of undeniable role of books in education and print’s impact on expression, the printed world has been forecast to disappear within this century. To revive the beautiful craft of print and redefine the typology of industrial architecture, lithographic Printing Press and Publishing House is proposed, where people’s experience of the machine is enhanced by the volume of the building, and softened with laminated oak columns, supporting the roof.
