Overview
Emerging from this moment of unprecedented isolation there was an impulse and desire to work together again. The practice and methodology that collective practice embodies resonated with the energy and works that the school aimed to produce.
Moving away from the architect as a single individual to instead a practice of multiplicity and inclusion.
The Possibility of an Island course is offered by Architectural Association
Together with a group of young international participants each collective put forward a design brief that addressed the spatial quality of temporality and transition.
Producing new tools, practices and rituals that reflect on this particular moment in time. The resulting works are temporary architectures that disappear following the two week school.
This year we will be producing toolkits in the form of video essays and photographs that design strategies of adaptation in times of drastic change.
