Archive for Space is a multidisciplinary design practice based in London. Established in 2019 by Arabella Maza and Stephen Maginn. Our work extends across Architecture, Interiors, industrial design, installations, generative art, and set design. The studio adopts a unique approach to each work, drawing and synthesizing an extensive archive of references and disciplines blending our research into a conscientious yet individual experience.

In addition to our design services we are ardent advocates of knowledge dissemination for we believe that design flourishes when it thrives upon collective brilliance. The ‘Archive’ hopefully unfurls a deeper understanding of design through our practice’s distinctive lens.

                                        "Charlotte Perriand read ‘The Book of Tea’ while she lived in Japan and Vietnam during the II War World. Both the book and the years of exile had a huge impact on her ideas and her design skills. Long time after her return to France in 1946 she was commissioned by her friend Hiroshi Teshigaharato design a Teahouse to be part of the Japanese Cultural Festival held in Paris in 1993. Her proposal was to be located on the rooftop of the UNESCO headquarters, along with other Tea houses designed by Tadao Ando, Ettore Sottsass and Yae Lun Choi."

                                        "From the mid 1960's on, Frei Otto recieved an increasing number of commissions for Large-scale projects, which allowed him to prove the actual advantages of tensile structures. Large Spans can be bridged more economically by tensile structures than by any other system. The reason is not only that most materials have a greater strength under tension than in compression, but also that the length of tensile members can be increased considerably without increasing their volume proportionally"

                                        is a contemporary sculptor born in Austria. She builds kites based on sketched ideas, from split bamboo, paper and ink. "the technical process and the knowledge of the laws of flight shape the result as well as the design. when the kite takes off and ascends, it changes my scale in the landscape, but its presence in it leaves no trace."

                                        "This immense silver cushion (12 x 10 x 2 meters) converts the rays absorbed by the transparent upper membrane into low-frequency radiation thanks to the lower part of the air sleeves, composed of a reflective silver membrane. In other words, the air inside heats up and expands, the structure inflates and floats autonomously. Held by ropes, Desert Cloud floats like a shimmering kite, thus producing a shadow zone in the middle of the desert. It is a free structure that requires no energy resources . Stevens demonstrated how it could even condense and capture water, managing to create ice in a clear night desert sky. The experience was filmed in 1974 in the Kuwaiti desert in the midst of the oil crisis, the artist using the documentary form to explain his approach"

                                        Cushicle and Suitaloon by Michael Webb.

                                        "During the sixties, the architecture of Archigram produced a revolution within the radical and utopian proposals that started to appear after the Second World War. This group of architects were deeply influenced by Pop Art, Science Fiction, comics, and new technology transformations that were produced from the Cold War. Archigram proposed a new relation between the individual and the city based on large movable infrastructures that could be adapted to an environment in constant transformation. This large scale allowed Archigram to propose radical speculations with a high degree of fantasy regarding our relationship to the city."

                                        Archive for Space in collaboration with Peter Carroll, Stefan Laxness and Peter Molloy attempt to unveil the specific relationships between the area and its people as a way of understanding this particular rural condition. What has been uncovered is a complex and conflicted dynamic with the landscape shaped by thousands of years of culture, politics and an almost constant movement of people to and from the area.

                                        Each contributor has developed their own line of enquiry based on their area of expertise and interest. Through conversations with various locals it is evident the cultural implications of the change from subsistence living on the land to a policy-led push towards urbanisation. Other interviews have revealed how the landscape has changed highlighting the reorganisation of the rural landscape as a result of increased urbanisation. Investigations on rural infrastructure particularly water reveals the important and continuing core role it has in the shaping of architecture, landscape and policy of the area. Lastly though photography we reveal overarching themes that display the rural land as capital for the population both inside and outside Connemara.

                                        The work displayed here is part of an ongoing investigation into the rural condition of Connemara. Through this project we intend to spark reflection of what the rural condition of Connemara is and its future could be. How can these distinct rural conditions persist and how can they continue to develop with modern economic, environmental, population and political changes?

                                        The Dungeness mirrors, known colloquially as the "listening ears", consist of three large concrete reflectors built in the 1920s–1930s. Before World War II and the invention of radar, acoustic mirrors were built as early warning devices around the coasts of Great Britain, with the aim of detecting incoming enemy aircraft by the sound of their engines.

                                        This house designed in 1928 by Adolf Rading in collaboration with the paintor and sculptor Oskar Schlemmer, is a perfect example of the Berlin style of that time. The architecture is particularly special as far as the dimensions of the living room are concerned. Indeed, the living room is particularly large compared to the dimensions of the other rooms of the house. In comparison, the bedrooms and bathroom seem really tiny. Moreover, the L-shape divides the room into two parts : a space with sofas and a table and a dining room. The huge window between the veranda and the dining room illuminates the living room and emphasizes the central position of this room.

It recalls their radical installation at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago in 1968, where they wrapped the entire space in the same fabric used for the dust cloths that had been covering it only days earlier, while it was being painted—a deliberate challenge the institutional function of museums.

                                        For artist Wassily Kandinsky, the cycle served as a basis for his first and only theater project, which was premiered in the German city of Dessau in 1928.

                                        Wassily Kandinsky was out to create a synthetic "Gesamtkunstwerk." For him, that meant that sounds took on hues that listeners could see before their eyes as they listened to the music. It was intended to be a Gesamtkustwerk of sound, color and motion.

The research station of the South African National Antarctic Expedition, completed in 1997, is the oldest of this new generation. But what it lacks in technology it makes up for in location. The base rests dramatically on top of an outcropping, known as a nunatak, some 800 feet high. The void below acts as a subzero maelstrom, sucking in snow and keeping it from burying the station up above. Furthermore, Sanae's position about 100 miles inland, off the ice, and situated on solid rock makes it ideal for sensitive seismological studies and GPS research. Teams of up to 10 scientists, engineers, mechanics, and doctors do 15-month stints perched here. Call it a lab with a view"

                                        "The Bread and Puppet Theater was founded in 1963 by Peter Schumann on New York City’s Lower East Side. Besides rod-puppet and hand puppet shows for children, the concerns of the first productions were rents, rats, police, and other problems of the neighborhood. More complex theater pieces followed, in which sculpture, music, dance and language were equal partners. The puppets grew bigger and bigger. Annual presentations for Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving and Memorial Day often included children and adults from the community as participants. Many performances were done in the street. During the Vietnam War, Bread and puppet staged block-long processions and pageants involving hundreds of people.

                                        In 1974 Bread and Puppet moved to a farm in Glover in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. The 140-year old hay barn was transformed into a museum for veteran puppets. Our Domestic Resurrection Circus, a two day outdoor festival of puppetry shows, was presented annually through 1998."

                                        Many of the buildings are two storeys high and those with granaries feature an almost spherical form above a cylindrical base. Some of the buildings have flat roofs, others have conical thatched roofs." They are grouped in villages, which also include ceremonial spaces, springs, rocks and sites reserved for initiation ceremonies.
