STUDENT WORK / PNM / 2A STUDIO

April 18, 2016 Posted by Julia Nakanishi Undergraduate Work, Work

Monday and Thursday are studio days. On these days in particular, the third floor undergraduate studio is filled with a frenetic energy of design, research, and exploration. Students can usually be found talking excitedly with design professors and classmates in a habitat saturated with trace sketches, study models, and empty coffee cups. Every week we’ll share a completed project, churned out from this energetic studio environment. 

Interested in having your work featured on our STUDENT WORK series? Check out our BRIDGE Contact page for submission details.


Peripheral Neoplastic Module | Ien Boodan | 2A Studio

Studio Professor: Adrian Blackwell

What if the way we owned space was different?

The current common model of housing atomizes individuals from the neighbour. It is unsustainable socially, economically, and environmentally. Modern society is rapidly progressing towards a nexus of rapidly upgradeable and replaceable objects; however, the substantial cost and rigidity of long-term means of owning space opposes this progression.

Peripheral Neoplastic Module, “PNM”, allows a tenant’s unit to change in tandem with their personal and economical circumstance. By offering a dynamic property line, neighbour’s can participate in the evolution and transformation of personal and common spaces, that is governed, owned, and used by the same people.
