Studio 2
The goal of Studio 2 was to study the concept of "Chance Interaction" by generating constraints which we would use to achieve unexpected and unplanned results, the success of which would potentially surpass intentionally designed elements. This was achieved through two abstract studies of chance operation, and culminated in the design of a site of "Last Repose" through which we also explored the concepts of life and death. This site was to include a death component, consisting of all the programmatic elements of a funeral home and a site of internment for the deceased, as well as a life component, consisting of a library and archive whose focus was texts pertaining to life and death.
