New Victorian

Another project from the archive, New Victorian was a parametric design for a set of railings for a new housing development commissioned by Hackney Council in London and designed in collaboration with Ricardo Gomes of KWY. Inspired by London’s ornate Victorian railings as well the neighbourhood’s prominence as a centre of the silk weaving industry in the 17th and 18th centuries and is inspired by the neighbourhood’s new status as a vibrant technology hub - the work is a mediation between these two identities.
