#25 SO-IL (NY, USA), Arquitetura Entre Vistas ABROAD
Listen now
Description
On episode 25 we think architecture alongside SO-IL, in the voice of Summer Liu. SO-IL are constantly pushing the boundaries...literally the physical boundaries...with them we learn boundaries are not just made by walls or windows. Just when you think they've reached the limit, their next project pushes it even further. They have the right amount of madness to pursue things outside of architecture until that one moment they surrender and become into architecture form.  “Once you have an intuition, its about working with the real world knowledge and then learn from the people that will eventually make the thing.” When you do so, you can find a way to make metal mesh rings relevant for architecture, against all odds (for it’s weight, for it’s scale, for it’s production…). “It’s like Avatars, they just touch each other and then see what happens there. You have to find a bridge that equalizes the two pieces of information.” “There is physicality to the abstract questions we ask.”…and it shows in every project.
