Reading Situations
Liza Fior presents some of muf’s work, demonstrating how to encourage involvement, rewrite briefs and use architectural skills to reveal existing situations and what is possible.
An Alternative Belfast
Mark Hackett discusses the need for discussion and engagement with the built environment, and presents his practice’s work which acts as a critique to planned developments and proposes alternatives.
Belfast provides an interesting situation, where developments such as the Westlink urban motorway, and cul-de-sac housing, has had a divisive effect on an already polarised city.
