The studio was anchored by the assertion that buildings are constituted by and form part of a network of relations. The consequence of such a description is that it then allows any one object – the building as object – to be an after-effect of the relations that pertain within a given conjunction, allowing the discipline to escape current conceptual limitations.
To rethink complex urban interventions for the city of Seoul, students sought to empower the public, to claim common space within the city, address the importance of future heritage, and to activate dormant city networks such as rooftops. The studio results were exhibited at the Inaugural Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism.
