So, here I'm now posting a picture of the first little thing i did for my project this year. I've even created a completely new topic called "projects" for this. My hope is that other people will do the same - post pictures/descriptions of their current project to get some response and discussion about it...

For this first month of school, the theme is "the social city" - dealing with the architectural consequences of social and psychological relations ... These are of course in a way very abstract things that seem very difficult to express physically. The israeli security fence is an example though - but what could a spatial concequence of being really annoyed with your mother, or falling in love with your roommate, be...?

In my project there are 3 people living and working... and as in all triangles, tensions very easely build up...even when they have guests. Their home is very open to friends and neighbors. But very complicated to be in because of constant loud arguments.

To try and work with all these issues I've attempted to create an object, that'll fit roughly as a building in 1:100, but more important - be something you can imagine yourself into, something that, like a childs toy, you can easily attach some kind of character to. I've tried to make it something that is both attractive and discusting... with some build in tensions... ambiguous, uncertain, without any clear conclusion as to how to look at it...

Here's a picture

Hope you don't all think I'm a discusting, bloodthirsty psycho now, hehe ... looking forward to some response...

love

Adam
