Stefan KLECHESKI, Yingjing MA, & Siwei REN: How specific can we get about the “cute”? Aren’t architects always pursuing an aesthetics of the “interesting,” “complex,” “beautiful,” “refined”? And do these sell as well as the “cute”? How can cuteness be deployed in architecture?

Sydney BROWN, Ava FARAB, & Steven SCHARRER: Antumbra is a concept for a housing, divorced from the context of place. It is a moody object—a beast in a field we imagine coming to life through a combination of novel construction techniques, future materials, and nuance.

Michael ROYER: The idea behind this project was to develop a contemporary reading of curve as it was used in Rococo Architecture. Techniques such as aggregation and emergence were used to try to revisit these architectural problems.
