"Myth Towards Practice"

Tuesday, Oct. 20, 2009
Wyly Tower Auditorium

“Axi:Ome, LLC, derives from the crossing of two Latin words: axiom and forme. [The firm] engage[s] in architecture as research: a mode of representation directly interfaced into social, cultural and economic influences....Architects are on the edge of performance and material opportunities with the developing digital operations that allow for increased participation in the building process. We encourage technological conditions that enable freedom within [the firm’s] design choices, and [they] believe that original work in today’s climate involves a spirit of collaboration where unique opportunities preside over individual authorship.”

A recent monograph of the firm’s work, entitled Spatial Practice, was recently published by ORO Editions.
