A LOT WITH A LITTLE

A Lot With Little
Architecture as care over style

Film installation by Noemí Blager and Tapio Snellman

Brilliant 3-screen installation at the AA, a beautiful watch and soundtrack describing a series of housing, education, social and public spaces across the globe using architecture as a form of care rather than exercise in style.

Love the lyrical snapshot format: overlapping images, brief text, micro interviews, not much detail, no statistics and a focus on people using the space not the big idea.

Includes 2 projects by Location & Vassal whose Bordeaux project sticks in my mind as the demolition vs retrofit battle plays out in the UK.

Finishes today, heading to Berlin next, loads of information here.
