POST- is whatever happens next.
In a vain attempt to situate the present, POST- creates media, interaction, architecture, writing and image, fully aware that everything's already happened, and one day if we’re lucky, it might happen again…Seeking to reinvent the practice and process of spatial production, POST- expands the boundaries of the architectural profession to search for new ways of fostering conscious participation and environmental co-creation.
POST- is Emma Silverblatt & Ryan Whitby
