Collaboration on a “Figurative Space Translator”

Process—————29 February 2012

Studio Twenty Seven Architecture is collaborating with the Catholic University School of Architecture’s Advanced Fabrication Studio to design a new entrance for our office. The design will feature the installation of a digitally fabricated construction that will define arrival, illuminate passage, and announce spatial opening. We are describing the construction as a “figurative space translator.” It will solve the current unregulated condition of transitioning from darkness to light and constriction to openness. The program, design, and operation of this “figurative space translator” will have dialectic references that will tie back into the firm’s design philosophy. The CUA students will design, fabricate, and install the piece during the Spring 2012 semester.
