So-Il: In Depth: Urban Domesticities Today
So-Il: In Depth: Urban Domesticities Today
The residential projects of the award-winning architecture firm responsible for the first Frieze New York pavilion. For over a decade, Brooklyn-based architecture firm SO?IL has been envisioning houses and other projects in between and adjacent to domestic spaces. Reflecting on the state of housing design today, often constrained by pressures of production, SO?IL approaches these projects with generous experimentation. They adapt and adjust the architectural and physical ?body languages? of domesticity while operating through the framing and occupation of liminal spaces. The projects featured in In Depth represent SO-IL's attempt to ?hack? the codes, cores, courts and corridors; to stretch and inhabit ?inefficiencies?; to turn the old stones and bring fragments of buried treasures from the past into the present; to question if housing for all should be the yardstick for the shelters of our souls; and to ask the future generations what kind of home we should design for them.
