Rooms: no Vacancy is a finalist entry for the pavilion of the Young Architects Program at the courtyard of MoMA PS1 Research Background This research sits in the fields of Temporary Architecture, Architectural Installations and Festival Architecture. The last 15 years have whiteness a global explosion of temporary pavilions sponsored by cultural institutions to host a variety of events. While bridging between site specific installations and architectural follies, the structures' purpose remains unclear. The research question in this project addresses that ambiguity: Can the architecture of a pavilion could start, ignite, or boost a successful celebration though a typological and technological approach? Research Contribution The project Rooms: No Vacancy recuperates the tradition of the New York party scene where celebrations are never activated by spectacular architecture but rather by the audience's interaction with different technologies. The project explores atmospheric technologies (light, sound, music) and scopic technologies (drugs, alcohol, sex) and provides a catalog of off-the-shelve devoices and architectural strategies to keep the event going. Research Significance Its value has been attested to by the following indicators: It is one of the six 2014 finalist of Young Architects Program at MoMA PS1, it was featured in the homonymous exhibition at MoMA in July 2014, It has been exhibited in the Art Institute in Chicago (AIC) in the exhibition 'Chatter: Architecture Talks Back' in 2015 and its now part of the permanent collection of the AIC. A mock-up scale1:1 of its rooms was built for the exhibition 'Occupied' at RMIT Design HUB in 2016. |
