Everyday, structures are created, destroyed, and repurposed. Some are preserved while others are left to slowly decay. As time passes and the world changes, new meanings can become attributed to these spaces. Their pasts and histories become vulnerable and new realities may take shape. For better or for worse, the functions spaces once had, the people they once served, and the circumstances that led to their erasure fade and become forgotten.&nbsp;</p> <p>There are a myriad of forces that drive this ever-occurring phenomenon, ranging from natural to deliberate actions. And, this is where difficult questions arise. What is the history of this place? Why has it been forgotten? Was this nullification intentional? Who and what were the agents that drove these actions?

The Syracuse-based architecture studio pulls together their passion for&nbsp;research and design practice to create projects which question the way people think about architecture and current issues.&nbsp;</p> <p>For this week's&nbsp;<a href="https://archinect.com/features/tag/845829/small-studio-snapshots" target="_blank">Studio Snapshot</a>, Archinect chats with&nbsp;Nicole McIntosh and Jonathan Louie of <a href="https://archinect.com/firms/cover/150130293/architecture-office" target="_blank">Architecture Office</a>. During this segment, we discuss what it means for a promising practice to take risks and excel creatively while running a firm. After founding their practice in 2015, McIntosh and Louie explore the opportunity of how different perspectives&nbsp;strengthen research-based experimentation.&nbsp;</p> https://archinect.com/features/article/150088402/ish-ness-counter-absolutes-maya-alam-and-the-harry-der-boghosian-fellowship Ish~Ness & Counter-Absolutes: Maya Alam and the Harry der Boghosian Fellowship.
