Supportive Collage Infrastructure
Abstract
Collage: a) an artistic composition made of various materials (such as paper, cloth, or wood) glued on a surface; b): a creative work that resembles such a composition in incorporating various materials or elements. As a designer, I believe the world is colorful, and composed of images which we use in order to compose the collages of our lives. I am interested in the way architecture acts as a catalyst for vulnerable communities and how design can be used to better the lives of those who experience it, ideally identifying the role architecture plays in the collages of our lives.
