AWC 1 – THE BIG BOX

This is the first in a series of investigations into architectural strategies for banal buildings of significant scale. The studio investigated the possibility for a vocabulary to be used for big boxes in the city. The projects are proposals for specific machines for the covered field. They are presented as portraits of possible buildings. Incomplete as it is, it shows a catalogue of potential tools, possible strategies, to deal with the indifference, scale, economy and pragmatism of the Big Box.
