News Feb 2013: Design a reversible interior, in five steps.
Given a series of examples of collective housing in Mexico City, the workshop puts the exercise of designing the furniture to support the daily activities, in a way that these can provide new possibilities of use around them when opened, and reverse the space to its origins when closed. These are what we call domestic supplies, furniture or supports that, when being actioned, make possible an activity, and when closed leave free space for other activities to happen in that space. The students (young architects in practice) made groups of two, and presented their proposals in hand drawings and physical models of process. The workshop was developed through hand drawing, working in a studio space at Universidad Iberoamericana.
