#157 of #Sarangbang 👩‍🦳👩‍🦳👩‍🦳 … “As a symbol of woman empowerment and gender equality, the modern Sarangbang should be an inclusive space for discussions and shelter cheap sanitary pad machines for young girls to recycle their waste into hygienic pads for free. To keep learning, to keep moving towards equality.” … 👩👩👩 BY Kimberley Berney
#156 of #Sarangbang …🏠🏠🏡🏡 “Taking queues from 'conversation pits' of the '70s, the space retains the communal gathering function of the Saranbang but instead proposes one inclusive, informal lounging landscape for all residents at the centre of the home.” …🏠🏠🏡🏡 BY THE BAKERLOOS @thebakerloos
#155 of #Sarangbang is “Sarang-bnb” …✈️✈️ “The non-traditional success of its architecture has morphed its interior entirely. Authenticity is uncomfortable and therefore must be manipulated into something more marketable. Tradition is lost, only its shell remains.” …✈️✈️ BY Enzo Lara-Hamilton @enzo_larahamilton @monasharchitecture
First brief of season 4 is out now! “Sarangbang” examines how to appropriate this traditional architectural condition within old Korean households #S4 #cubelab #korea
We are very excited to announce the arrival of Season 4. The new season marks the beginning of a new chapter “APPROPRIATION” in which we critique the prevalent homogenising process of architecture within our profession. “Homogenising architectural regulations, precedents and techniques around the globe led to a rapid development in safety and efficiency in exchange for locality and particularity. How did the Georgian, Baroque, modernist and Edo-period stairwells, condense into a single CAD block?” In alignment with the new chapter, season 4 seeks to pioneer a new way of thinking. How can we OCCUPY the existing traditional architectural condition? Does adding a new architectural element over an old one justify as a meaningful extension of architectural history? How would you OCCUPY an old architectural condition?
Our last entries of #alterednature are trickling in! Here’s #cube154: #volume64season3 #laptopistan 🌱 “Brownfield sites are as connected as they are desolate, often existing as central but abandoned patches in the urban fabric. Left for the drudgery of being unpalatable and unbuildable, attempts at “Urban Regeneration” lead down the slippery slope to gentrification. Chef and food traveller Anthony Bourdain coined the growth of these commercial establishments phenomenon “Laptopistan” - likely due to their nomadic nature of laptop-clutching, coffee drinking millennial inhabitants. The proposal engages gentrification in favour of pushing the plant-loving millennial trope to its extreme: urban green spaces. Taking the tongue-in-cheek Laptopistan, it runs with it.” 🌱🌵 BY SABRINA SYED @sabi_syed
