Description
When Onix finished a large-scale residential complex in Zwolle, Holland, they kept an apartment there for six months and invited dozens of visitors to sleep over for one night each. In return, Onix asked their guests to jot down their experiences with the neighbors, businesses, public transportation, and the space itself. This sort of local ecosystem has been the firm’s focus for its first short but eventful decade, and Onix believes it to be the essence of architecture. 'Awaiting show more Signification' chronicles those ten years, offering an overview of important projects including a much-discussed ecological farm for the disabled in Haren. It also includes 'MaNUfest', a text presenting the bureau’s mission, which follows from its iconoclastic view that contemporary architecture is dominated too much by concepts and images, at the expense of actual architectonic experience. show lessTags
