Office for Narrative Reconstruction: New Imaginaries for Collective Lifestyles

Kemmett Malaya Saunders-Nazareth

/ Pauline Ehrhardt

In the construction and real estate industries, narratives have developed as a way to further their growth through perpetuating belief of the general public of certain definitions of quality living and desireable space.
By presenting information in a particular way, our perception can be moulded and shape our reality. Our practice aims to deconstruct existing imaginaries, understand the tools, processes and methodologies behind these narratives, offering an opportunity to rethink and suggest a different way of seeing space.
