#42 Ryan W Kennihan (IE), Arquitetura Entre Vistas ABROAD

Let’s travel to Dublin, Ireland, where Ryan W Kennihan - originally from Chicago - has established his practice in 2007.  Ryan is much more interested in an architecture of resonance then in one that is completely self-involved. “Whatever “non-referencial architecture” means, it is the complete opposite of this”. An architecture of resonance is a certain sense that arises from using forms that exist all over the world. Their practice is about a constant meaning giving. “We want as many as possible, a proliferation of references”. At a certain point we might find ourselves questioning if we are taking part in the evolution or just continuously extending a mistake. One cannot be sorry, “its very much about looking forward and looking back, trying to be old and be new; to be refined and be awkward.” “What’s interesting to me is not the framework itself but actually the variations within the framework.Guest: Ryan W Kennihan, Ryan W.
