Eine heiße Viertelstunde

Brennan Buck

Through the work of FreelandBuck, Eine heiße Viertelstunde’ will
document an architectural formalism that combines the complex
continuity of topological surfaces and the articulation of tectonics.
Enabled by the precise modulation of computation, the firm’s work at
the scales of installations, interiors, buildings and infrastructure
aims to catalyze a contemporary yet multiplicitous mode of formal
continuity: pattern.
