PER SE

Share Romania graciously welcomed the “per se” exhibition of EAA in Bucharest.

“Façade is not a phenomenon to be studied individually.

 It is one of the natural and spontaneous outcomes

of intellectual design process.”

EAA – Emre Arolat Architecture’s new exhibition per se as part of International Architecture & Technology Forum and Blueprints of Innovation Exhibition at Radisson Blu Hotel, organized by SHARE Architects took place in Bucharest and throughout the course of the exhibition’s two-day duration, it captivated the attention and interest of visitors.

The word “façade” is originated from “facia”, a Vulgar Latin word meaning front / face. It corresponds to the front/face of a building. Echoing Kevin Lynch’s sagacity from “The Image of the City”, one recognizes the cardinal role that façades play in civic engagements. They stand sentinel at the juncture of interiority and the external realm, encapsulating the essence of design, culture, and context. To the discerning observer, the façade often unravels the holistic idea of the project that is usually readable from the first grasp.

The digital installation per se* exhibited a selection of EAA projects to reflect how does the façade emerges with the idea as a manifestation of a holistic design approach rather than being an afterthought or a mere decoration.
