topographic formwork
- a construction site under construction
The topographic formwork construction site explores four differ- ent ways of in-situ moulding.
Re-thinking our building methods and techniques, by merging both worlds of the construction workers and construction approaches of termites, allows us to develop new strategies.
With this attitude of co-opting materials from a site, we allow ourselves to re-discover alternative ways of constructing molds in order to cast contextual wall fragments.
The speculative formwork casts, result in four wall casts of identical dimensions, yet they have com- pletely different visual expressions.
