From the architects and curatorial team. One of architecture?s fundamental legacies is its own form. Not only is history built from its visual universe, but form is also a common language that brings together architects from all over the world in a collective conversation. In this exhibition, which proceeds from a potentially infinite repository, three architects?Johnston Marklee, Nuno Brandão Costa, and Office KGDVS?build a dialogue that challenges notions of authorship and the limits of form.
