Bri(ck)Can(vas)Puz(zle)
We understood that each group hoped to create an original proposition so we chose to create a brick that could embody this originality itself and become an canvas for each group to create their own creations within. The canvas-brick had to behave like a brick; so it had to retain the stack-ability, ease of construc- tion, and overall simple overall design. The brick itself takes a very simple form. We didn’t want to re-invent the brick; we just wanted to manipulate it a little bit to create a better linkage system. The overall design enforces a linked wall system that would be two components deep, five high, and an undetermined length. This size would facilitate a bar like installation that would, with the outdoor location, attract the student population of IAAC.
