Space in-between

rotative studio & London Festival of Architecture

Space in-between is an interactive exhibition that results from and builds on a one-year residency in Zürich in 2019.

In Switzerland it is mandatory to inform citizens about building plans and actively involve them in the planning process. To this purpose, life-size architectural models, i.e. simulations of the proposed construction, are placed on the site where the building is planned. Although these simulations represent the future, they have a material presence that makes the prospective transformation tangible within the present. Nonetheless, such models are necessarily also abstractions, fragmentary representations that depict only one particular aspect of a future building. On the basis of the contour alone, a volume is suggested; the construction of one detail can serve to test the materiality meticulously. As such, they rely on our imagination and our specific physical experience to complete the picture. This generates a more ambiguous and subjective space of potentiality in the borderlands between present and future.In the exhibition we will present a variety of different formats, such as video, drawings and collages that we used to examine this ‘space in-between’ and question how the fine balance between abstraction and detail – demonstration and imagination – frames the range of interpretations and either limits or facilitates a room for dialogue.
