Like glue, they bring fragments of images, sketches, patterns, materials and textures together. In turn, they define architectural and spatial concepts. Collages can be used for generating new ideas, to represent projects, or as part of the design method and process itself. The central idea is defined as a work of representation made with various different materials combined or collected together. Integrating visual and physical elements, the result is usually a quicker and more iterative way to explore and translate ideas.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_88867\" style=\"width: 1639px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-88867\" class=\"size-full wp-image-88867 lazy lazy_media_item\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/113.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1629\" height=\"801\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/113.jpg 1629w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/113-300x148.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/113-1024x504.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/113-768x378.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/113-1536x755.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/113-400x197.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1629px) 100vw, 1629px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-88867\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Collage and Reality.

She outlines the potential of eidetic photomontage, where photographic images are \u201ccharacterized by compositional cues that create links \u2013 even if subtle \u2013 to realities, stories and histories. These types of collages can be created physically or digitally, and tend to rely on resituating photographic images into new settings with intentions to provoke critical discourse, rather than simply display the idea or environment.\u201d Eidetic photomontage explores the potential of collage-making to resist, subvert and dissolve controlling images.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_88866\" style=\"width: 1810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-88866\" class=\"size-full wp-image-88866 lazy lazy_media_item\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/6546456.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1800\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/6546456.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/6546456-300x160.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/6546456-1024x546.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/6546456-768x410.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/6546456-1536x819.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/6546456-400x213.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-88866\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Alex Hogrefe No-Render Quick Collage<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p>For professional architectural visualizer , quick ideation can involve generating a collage style illustration.

She chooses not to make any computer visualizations of her designs that are still a work in progress. Instead, collages are used to develop new building ideas. She regularly notes that she sees her architecture work as a platform where everyone can add their complexities, diversities and personalities. Collage becomes a tool to express ideas in a collaborative way.<\/p>\n<p>Bilbao explains that, \u201cWe use collage not only to conceive our work, as a method of design, but also to represent it. For example, we have done projects in which we design with references, with images, with photos of other things with spaces we want to create, and then we collage them, show them to the client, and then we design on top of that. It&#8217;s a method of integrating, physically and visually, all those references that we always have into the design while expressing our ideas easily. You are able to recognize what we are thinking because you recognize the [reference] space we are showing you.\u201d For her, collages allow for processes and room for mistakes, making space for exploration and interpretation.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_88864\" style=\"width: 1714px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-88864\" class=\"lazy lazy_media_item wp-image-88864 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Staterra-2.jpg\" alt=\"architectural collage tatiana bilbao\" width=\"1704\" height=\"813\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Staterra-2.jpg 1704w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Staterra-2-300x143.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Staterra-2-1024x489.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Staterra-2-768x366.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Staterra-2-1536x733.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Staterra-2-400x191.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1704px) 100vw, 1704px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-88864\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Staterra, Courtesy <a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/firms\/tatiana-bilbao-sc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tatiana Bilbao Estudio<\/a><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p>Whether used for explaining ideas to clients and colleagues, or for generating ideas, collages make the most of mixed media to combine fragments and create new meaning. These compilations of contextual elements can form new visions of the future. When generating new ideas, representing projects, or exploring a design process, collages open up possibilities. In a sense, they are a type of drawing that is endless and never really finished, allowing room for multiple readings.
