>The
design
The ArchiLab design is a virtual device which is printed on the spot. A
grid has been arbitrarily applied to all the buildings, running through
the different exhibition levels and defining both the exhibition spaces
and the visitor circuits. Each architect has at his disposal an area of
about 325 sq. ft., staked out by specific marking on the floor. Each one
of these "surface-units" has the same colour scheme (yellow and blue for
ArchiLab 2000). Within this area, the architects install, arrange, and show
one or more projects, in the form of maquettes, plans, videos, writings,
etc. The linear arrangement of these "surface-units" links the areas together,
while offering each team a specific space for its use.
