9 architects / 9 proposals to live
Dep by Spedstudio will be shown as part of 9 architects / 9 proposals to live exhibition. Curated by Florence Sarano, the exhibition will take place at Villa Noailles in Hyeres France from February the 19th to March the 25th of 2012.
Choosing 9 buildings in Europe, the exhibition aims to discover 9 architects and 9 personal universes being at these projects origin.
...Each of these 9 projects is a way of entering these universes: the hidden world that nevertheless brings to the project. The exhibition suggests discovering these works inscription in the authors personal geographies.
What are the place and the role of the architect universe in this realization? Is the scale of the house an ideas laboratory for other projects? These 9 realizations also result of a complex and elaborated process.
What are the used tools? Why? How does the designer play with them? What are the various steps of the project?
In the end, how does each architect’s universe feed on the project itself?
....
The exhibition thus proposes, in each room situated on the sports level, various admissions in the designer concept, with multiple tools (plans, photos, objects, texts and 9 movies). These 9 realizations put together are as many propositions as directions. Their juxtaposition opens as many constructions as possible. Visitors themselves weave the links between them. Behind disparities and likeness, behind the possibly sometimes identical questionings and the different answers, these 9 propositions reveal what the architects show during the exhibition time: parts of their hidden worlds.
