THE URBAN THEATRE OF PRINTING AND MAKING

This multi-faceted proposition explores issues of spatial, material, social and cultural porosities through the different notions of ‘making’. The urban and architectural strategies foreground the public realm and community though the design of a theatre which celebrates the existing Nash façade, and theatrical journeys that juxtapose the new built with site-specific features of interest. Importantly, the practice of architecture is simultaneously articulated through physical acts of making where sustainability is embedded in design processes developed through recycling and the use of recycled materials only. The innovation and exciting architectural conversations notwithstanding, this further serves as a firm reminder of the climate we are currently operating in.
