Oversight

There are things that we think we are doing and there are things that we are also doing, so do we really know what we do?

This project is about redefining Architecture; a subject that informs us what we do and is one that is formed by us. I’ve designed ways to think about Architecture to account for the things that we also do, the things we overlook - the oversights. ‘Oversight’ is also the act of overseeing, and this project is about the role of the Architect. It questions how we see ourselves and asks what more we could be doing if we were willing to see things differently.

Using the device of a ‘misread’ or ‘misconception’ as a way of accessing these ideas, the project takes the form of a fictional renovation to the Architects Institute Building.
