3. Living + Working Together



Research Project / 2013
Dogma Studio / Supervised by Pier Vittorio Aureli and Martino Tattara
The research project taps into historical architectural typologies that bring together living and working and analyzes and identifies the contemporary condition of living and working together in case-studies such as squats and hacker spaces in Brussels.
The historical research ranges from the typology of the villa rustica of ancient Rome to the monastic typologies of the French and Italian Middle-Ages to the experimental communities of the Phalanstery to Constructivist social condensers to Andy Warhol's Silver Factory. The research methodology pursued fieldwork through which Brussels squatter and hacker spaces were identified.
