A story by Linus Lutz, based on a conversation with Patrick Hubmann.
Story told by Rebecca Acosta.
Together, collaborative practices propose through experimentation other ways of living, working and learning. Through a series of dialogues and readings, Joanne Pouzenc questions how collaborative practices contribute in shaping not only the visible - cities and the built environment - but also the invisible - relationships, community, society. What can we do together that we couldn’t do alone?
Constructlab takes a dynamic approach to uniting architectural concept and construction with emphasis on collaboration. Breaking with traditional divisions of labor, the organization engages a team of multitalented designer-builders—as well as sociologists, urban planners, graphic designers, curators, educators, and web developers—who carry the creative process from the drafting table into the field, enabling design to respond to the possibilities and restraints posed by materials, site, environment, and utilization.
Joanne Pouzenc is an architect, educator and independent curator working on collaborative processes and learning environments through architecture, cultural production and editorial work.
