Description/Abstract
Lawrence Scarpa’s work is deeply rooted in conditions of the everyday and works with our perception and preconceptions to allow us to see things in new ways. They do this, not by escaping the restrictions of practice, but by looking, questioning and reworking the very process of design and building, rethinking the way things normally get done with material, form, construction, even financing and to subsequently redefine it to cull out it’s latent potentials making the “ordinary extraordinary".
