PEOPLE’S CHOICE AWARD

‘Cities: A definitive archive of infinite possibilities’

This is all there was and all there will be.
It is the spatial history of the architect,
An archive of cities lived through the lens of architectural drawing.
It is a repository of ideas and possibilities, a machine for the creation of futures; Saturated with the persistent hope of creativity.

Cities #4 is part of a series of drawings generated through overlaying city maps from all over the world. This process of abstraction allows us to open ourselves to novel ways of drawing the city and carefully selecting novel scales and patterns of potential projections in order to produce imaginary places.
