The publication contains more than a hundred documents developed in the autumn of 2020 by third year architecture students at the University of Technology Sydney. Miguel Rodríguez-Casellas, Eduard Fernàndez & Jack Cooper, Anna Tonkin & Eric Ye, Andrew Daly & Beatrice Myatt, Isaac Harrisson & Lindsay Mulligan, Sophie Lanigan & Victoria King, Miguel Gilarte & Charlie Curtin, Lewis Evans & Heather Cappie-Wood, Tova Lubinsky and Charlie Channon were their tutors. Dane Voorderhake was their consultant. The team was supervised by Guillermo Fernández- Abascal (GFA2, GFA).
The selected documents refer to both the predecessors of the architecture of infrastructure and the student’s proposals. Most of these documents have been developed at two radically different scales: 1/500 and 1/5. These scales allow us to discuss the architecture of infrastructure because they facilitate continual and simultaneous debate about façade details and urban approaches, structural order and logistics, technical resolution and civicness, and science and culture. The proposed typologies do not require the intricate development of planning to be technically viable or publicly interesting. The proposed buildings, like many contemporary buildings, are categorized as big boxes. This is the second attempt at distilling possible strategies for the architecture of infrastructure, and, this publication unveils the projects to judge whether they achieve a masterful complexity, an effective plan, an exquisite structure, a supreme envelope, or an obviously big scale, and, if this is enough.
This booklet was published for the final reviews of directed by Guillermo Fernández-Abascal (GFA2, GFA) at the UTS School of Architecture in Autumn of 2020. Nicole Ho & Samson Ossedryver designed the publication.
