E&C Research + References
Research is the most important part of our project. Artists and references we are inspired by include: Talk about references/artists designers and how the APPLICATION of design thinking methods have been a success/ unsuccessful. Consider in real life contexts. 2 more examples with little text underneath.
Stephanie Boutari - Mural artist
After completing her master's degree in architecture at the University of Waterloo, Boutari says she started noticing that many buildings across Waterloo Region were "bleak" and "lacked" any sort of character. Similar to the space we had identified in Elephant and Castle. "By adding art, it draws people's attention to their environment. It makes them look at it twice and appreciate the beauty around them," says Boutari.
A thesis states: (We could not track down the author)
The surface of architecture is presented as a site of conflict between two traditionally opposing imperatives of architecture: to represent social and cultural identity, and the art of its designed construction or tectonics – its structural order, material qualities, modular assembly, modes of production, and functionality. While the former is tied to stylistic traditions, the latter is inherently connected to technology.
We liked this idea of manipulating the surface so that the viewer uncovers the historical elements that are integrated within the Elephant’s architecture. Through designing a mural that embodies this idea we can create something that has a deeper meaning that just something to decorate the walls to hide the ugliness of the building.
In terms of design thinking we considered two main ideas the could help us move towards a sophisticated solution.
Art & Activism
In terms of these two notions, we decided to favour the former but embrace them both. By creating a piece of art, we’re preserving what activists may be fighting for (which would be the sense of community and cultural history) by creating a digital application – which will exist forever. In turn we solve an issue that although might be the most desired outcome, can be adapted and worked around the new development.
Human-Centred Design
We also considered the mode of Human-Centred Design. By immersing ourselves within the community we were able to develop a solution in response to peoples desires of preserving their home in some way. Although this approach has been critiqued for its ability to actively problem solve in affected communities, our idea positively utilises technology in an attempt to solve a social problem. We’re not only going to create a present day solution but also future solutions that would exist in the past present and future.
