Spatial Metamorphosis
Project
description

Over one hundred square meters -total surface of the
remodeled LC1248 apartment by Ricardo Agraz-, architecture, art, design and
photography have come together to explore all the possible variations of this
space.
The result brought a rich series of versions, or else,
spatial metamorphosis achieved by the replacement of objects and the renewal of
light design, which then again created unique and differentiated atmospheres.
Architecture, hence, became scenery, whereas art and design, the characters of
meaning.
Therefore, combining architectural distribution and
creative practice gave out a set of variables where spatial characteristics can
change and exchange according to the placing of art work and furniture.
Furthermore, with the idea of surpassing simple
habitability limits, showing the peaceful coexistence of the diverse roles and
enhancing space and budget shortage, there was an evident contrast between
housing production and life scenery creation.
The rationed surface of LC1248 was optimized, becoming
the platform for every single one of the aesthetic expressions in order to let
them carry on a shared dialogue, this is, no one stands above the other, while
each part is necessary to hold the others.
In this exercise, which was later named Spatial Metamorphosis, the set of
probabilities was captured in images where individual and grouped artistic
capacities were presented as an existing collision of creativity. Architecture,
art, design and photography, were portrayed in order to show the evidence of each
one’s reason to be.
