Flow State
This third-year Bachelor of Architecture design studio explored how the distribution of goods could become a civic process. Each student designed a distribution centre incorporating a public amenity. Examples included an e-waste recycling facility and makerspace, a textile recycling plant and exhibition space, a media archive, and an autoparts distribution and repair centre crossed with a labour school. These projects reimagine logistical buildings as sites of public engagement and solidarity, challenging logics of efficiency, convenience, and instant gratification in favour of sustainability, collectivity, and care. Working across scales, from the parcel to the city, students proposed ways to make consumers aware of the impacts of how they consume.
