PAYETTE is pleased to announce that the Pennsylvania State University Eva J. Pell Laboratory for Advanced Biological Studies has received a 2015 BSA Honor Award. The sole judging criterion is design excellence. The BSA will announce the tier of the awards at the annual gala in January 2016.
Sandrine Héroux, Sophie McKenzie, and Emily Chowdhury are each members of our in-house Fabrication team. Their day-to-day work centers on a simple question: what changes when design becomes something people can physically test?
These women challenge the notion of fabrication as a support service, framing it instead as an essential component of architectural authorship, a way to test ideas, share agency, and widen the boundaries of what architectural practice can include.
In our most recent blog, they discuss their individual paths in architecture and reflect on their experience using fabrication as a tool for fostering shared agency, community engagement and broadening the role of the architect. Link in bio!
