ASPLUND STEPS
EXPLORATIONS IN CONSTRUCTION
PLACE & CONSTRUCTION
2013
There's a little, okay maybe HUGE part of me that has an obsession with construction and it's grimey details. For "Building Tecnologies" a few of us decided to rebuild the entrance stairs.
It was an amazing experience to understand what building felt like in the 1920's.
A wooden jig. Concrete mixing. Concrete Pouring. Bricks. Plaster. Marble, the menagerie of materials.
