STUDIO/ ARCHAEOLOGY
The book delves into the relationship between architecture, specifically vacant
or unused structures, and their potential for transformation and adaptability.
It explores this topic through a focus on creative exploration and investigation,
employing a studio and artistic approach.
The book examines the concept of repurposing or reimagining vacant buildings to
unlock new possibilities and adapt them to contemporary needs, evoking a sense of exploration, creativity, and the potential for reinventing architectural spaces

ABOUT THE WORK
This project documents the interior of msdm project space through a cross-section of representational approaches including photogrammetry, narrative/ documentary context and book art.
The 3-d models of msdm space as bookwork offer a reading experience of the building’s interior, as both artist’s home-studio-gallery and space of contemporary archaeology.
msdm building, located in South-East London has a rich archaeology, from military offices (early 20th century) to community events space (2000s), traces of these former uses are still encoded in its interiors.
Additional archaeological context is provided by the juxtaposition with photogrammetry models from Champion’s Grotto and Brabazon Hangars, two sites of Bristol’s industrial archaeology. documented by the same team.
The title STUDIO/ ARCHAEOLOGY places the reading experience in the context of archaeology of the contemporary past, asks what is the studio for contemporary photographic publishing artistic practice, and where are the boundaries of spatial representation, as each space “bleeds" in one single archaeological site.

CONTEXT
Spatial imagination, free-hand and digital drawing, model making and diagramming, modelling techniques, theoretical position, are a particular focus, this year, to focus upon the human occupation of space, the loss of social space correlating with the global pandemic of covid-19, as well
as the corresponding overlaps between domestic and institutional or public frameworks.
The work is to consider an explicit and embedded social
and material sustainability:
Is physical intervention needed? How is it needed?
How can we contribute to emerging alternatives to the paradigm of increasing economic growth towards human
and environmental wellbeing? What kind of spaces will we inhabit when cultivation rather than extraction is the goal? We challenge the discipline of architecture from within to reframe and remake our way of being in the world, to consider Interior Architecture as a collective ritual.
The studio considers the exploration of the notion of architectural narrative, and the use of design to convey an idea or a theoretical position and the integration of historical, theoretical and cultural references within a design proposal for: The body, activity and space, the [tc9] possibilities of interior architecture and its spatial, poetic and political implications and[tc10] spatial creativity and response.
