Hippies Finally Do Something Worthwhile.

We used to be able to write the things off that we didn’t like with just one word: hippy. But now, these hippies at Ball – Nogues Studio are doing really cool stuff that we can’t easily dismiss with a blanket generalization. So check out the amazing architectural anarchy these hips are churning out of their environmental design sweatshop. 

“Ball-Nogues Studio is an integrated design and fabrication practice that creates experimental built environments to enhance and celebrate the potential for social interaction through sensation, spectacle and physical engagement while striving to infuse the matter of the built environment with a downstream purpose. To achieve these results, we work with unusual materials, develop new digital tools, and apply architectural techniques in unorthodox ways. We share an enthusiasm for the fabrication process as it relates to the built object both physically and poetically by letting the properties, limitations, and economic scenarios associated with a material guide a structure’s ultimate form while developing methods to extend the intertwined boundaries of a material’s aesthetics, physical potential and lifecycle.” – Ball Nogues Studio
