Description
Cornell AAP Preston H. Thomas Memorial Symposium is an annual Symposium. "FRINGE: New Centers for Architecture and Urbanism", as the title of 2023, is an ambiguous patchwork of zones that form a wide range of territorial landscapes which can be characterized as neither urban nor rural. These multivalent rural-urban zones constitute new conceptual centers for architecture and urbanism. The core of their symposium is about materials that attendees are applying. Regarding the promotional materials, I focused on a visual extension and patchwork of all the raw materials used by the participants of this forum and exhibition to show what seems to be a marginal but actually constitutes a new architectural and planning landscape and style, emphasizing the theme of cross-scale and advanced materials. So basically, I took all the interesting materials that the exhibition was using, like elephant poop, bamboo, traditional bricks, raw stones, etc. The collage combination was made in different directions, while retaining part of the image of raw materials, so that people can not only understand that these textures come from materials, but also show the spatial relationship they present.
