On the Roadside
The creations by Drawing Architecture Studio are deeply intertwined with the roadside. From street vendors in Beijing and overpasses in Chongqing to strip malls in Syracuse and folk houses in Tokamachi, each element encountered during their walks has been transformed into works across various forms and media. Some pieces are grounded in reality, others blend different times and spaces, and some are imaginative extrapolations, aiming to design architecture through storytelling. This lecture presents a selection of the latest works by Drawing Architecture Studio, all inspired by the roadside.
