From humour to cynicism, from scenarios to building designs, from analytics to polemics, a reality-based project can be both imaginative and socially pertinent, both professionally aligned and academically rigorous. Each of our projects explores existing archetypes of representation as critical tools in order to position architecture as both a professional and intellectual act. Each project can be understood through a singular artefact. Hence, each project is an allegory of one concept in which we find unity despite our own specific interpretations: whether banal, mundane, trivial or extraordinary, spectacular, eventful... there are multiple Good Lives.
