THESIS PROJECT
Bespoke and expressive architecture is often seen as the pinnacle of modern design, resulting in buildings that aren’t just viewed as a place of shelter but rather a piece of livable art. However, through creating such fluid and organic concrete forms, we are often oblivious to the extraordinary amounts of temporary form work destined for landfill, in order to develop such structures.
More With Less Expressive
Modularity
In contrast to this, the architecture industry has also seen a rise in modular design for disassembly. However, these designs often result in repetitive forms that are plagued with straight walls and sharp corners. Through developing a system capable of achieving bespoke architectural forms that utilises the core principles of modular design for disassembly through a set of standardised construction elements, we can achieve expressive design gestures and eliminate the need for the temporary form work that ends up in landfill, truly allowing us to do more with less.
