. . . and so, of, course it was no surprise to hit their website/WORK.ac & find some pretty amazing graphics, design elements & projects.

. . . and don’t skip – hitting those little icons – along the bottom of the website screen – those are their many projects & project proposals – to date !!

you can see P.F.1/PUBLIC FARM ONE – which they really, seriously focused on – though pretty presitigious, being sponsored by MoMA, as well as it’s affliate P.S.1 – is actually a relatively small (budget) project/proposal for them – in the relative scale of all things: architecture !!

. . . our fave of all their proposals & projects – was their master plan 2002 for MAKKAH WESTERN GATEWAY – MAKKAH, Saudi Arabia.

. . . . of course – their attention to detail, vision, lightheartedness/in seriousness, and innovative design – and just – how much work goes into these proposals – is also made abundantly clear in a quick visit to the website devoted to PUBLIC FARM ONE at P.S. 1 – as these few examples of the renderings found on the site – make clear in an instant.
