Last year, at a Bartlett evening lecture, an architect said: 'This building is not finished, I mean it hasn't been photographed'. This suggests that buildings are finite objects which have a single moment of perfection before they are handed to their occupants.
Unit 17 is interested in buildings which cannot be finished. They exist in time and their components have a history. Once they are brought together they begin to change through reaction, occupation, weathering, extension and demolition. A building is a story and not a thing. It is a coming together of different cycles and different speeds. No single drawing, model or photograph can describe its changing states.
