Dichotomy 19: Ugly
The term ugly is often associated with any project that veers from the realm of easy and accepted solutions. In reality, it is the skin of an investigation that challenges our perception of form and architecture. Dichotomy 19 seeks to understand this complexity through a conversation of its own social and cultural aesthetic.
