An Upclose Look at Work's 'Public Farm One'
Beyond reading our reports of its commission and construction, you saw it here on UnBeige being built in a hurry by way of time-lapse. And maybe you've even stopped by Public Farm One over there at P.S. 1 in New York. But for those who couldn't make it, haven't made the trip yet, or simply didn't have a camera, Dezeen has a great feature up with a million photos highlighting the Young Architects Program-winning work by the firm Work. Beyond the pictures, there are also a few tidbits, some from Dezeen and some from Work's press materials, like in this big statement about the public space's purpose: This summer of 2008, exactly 40 years after '68, it is time for a new leisure revolution! One that creates a symbol of liberation, knowledge, power and fun for today's cities. Leaving behind the Urban Beach, our project becomes the 'Urban Farm' -- a magical plot of rural delights inserted within the city grid that resonates with our generations' preoccupations and hopes for a better and different future.
