Inspiration comes from anywhere, everywhere. Sometimes flipping through an old Communication Arts sparks an idea or I’ll be be inspired while wandering around the studio to check out new mock-ups and design schemes. Sometimes a little clutter helps us think and really settle in to a project. In honor of the small chaos that orders our work, let’s take a look around at what’s on our desks. What’s on your desk? Where do you draw inspiration?
Sandrine Héroux, Sophie McKenzie, and Emily Chowdhury are each members of our in-house Fabrication team. Their day-to-day work centers on a simple question: what changes when design becomes something people can physically test?
These women challenge the notion of fabrication as a support service, framing it instead as an essential component of architectural authorship, a way to test ideas, share agency, and widen the boundaries of what architectural practice can include.
In our most recent blog, they discuss their individual paths in architecture and reflect on their experience using fabrication as a tool for fostering shared agency, community engagement and broadening the role of the architect. Link in bio!
