Visiting Assistant Professor, Zenovia Toloudi co-curates exhibition on contemporary Greek architecture.
Co-curated by visiting assistant professor Zenovia Toloudi, Made in Greece Plus exhibited contemporary built and unbuilt work by young Greek architects at the Boston Museum of Science. The show demonstrated how design thinking, technological innovation, and scientific research influence the creation of the human-made environment. Sixteen architectural projects were selected for the clarity of their objectives and the experimental character of their design strategies. These works were juxtaposed with one research installation that showcased how computational technology can foster design education. The diverse repertoire included works that use digital technology to reinterpret craftsmanship; incorporate landscape topography to complement built form; mutate traditional typologies to invent new ones; organize building volumes to reflect social structure; create transformable interiors to maximize utilization of space; use social stereotypes to criticize culture; and develop computational tools to nurture structural intuition. Through these examples, Made in Greece Plus illustrated the value of design in the current socioeconomic conditions in Greece.
