Can you Camp it?

My project explores the transformation of a home’s exterior using generic tiles, shifting it from a conventional catalog selection to an absurdly appealing material expression. By superimposing a new envelope onto existing structures, the project distorts viewers’ understanding, prompting a reevaluation of the familiar. Drawing on the camp aesthetic, which embraces the unconventional and celebrates the appeal of the unusual, the project elevates mundane materials to artful statements. Through this lens, the project challenges the notion of taste and beauty, inviting viewers to reconsider their preconceptions of design. This work embodies a playful exploration of how architectural elements can be reimagined to provoke thought and evoke a sense of whimsy in the built environment.
