Architecture by Exposome

An architecture that is cross-scale, cross-time, cross-species.

The micro-world is showing clear signals of the large and slow ecological crisis we’re in. We’ve already lost a third of microbial diversity. As we are headed towards dramatic ecological and microbial collapse, this project is to design tools that push architects to engage with ecosystems by allowing for direct interaction with the microbial.

The Architectural Exposome is a project that is at the same time a world, a drama and a set of tools for practice, aiming to bring the architect in direct contact with the microscopic fuzz we are always surrounded by.
