The NXT Magazine: Transformations of Care
Whenever I visit a site together with architect friends, we instinctively find ourselves sensing the building’s surface. As if, by touching it, we might reach deeper layers to its understanding.
Camera in hand, I decided to engage on an exploration in Copenhagen using the same approach. I focused on built projects that have challenged somehow the status quo through the notion of transformation.
I tried to capture how their materials look and feel, with a clear question in mind: What emerges aesthetically when transformation is the mindset?
