A place acquires meaning through human intervention and transformation. Raised to the level of architecture these transformations interpret and represent society s values and aspirations. FJMT has a reputation as an ideas-driven practice with an agenda for strong public engagement and resolution of tectonics.
Form Material Assembly documents this ability to uncover the real and often contradictory issues and potentials of a project through a very careful analysis of purpose and place.
