Vortexture puts forward an architecture that is agile, activity-based and challenges our ide­as of organization and static typologies. Materializing permeant physical form – it is a space that is constant fluctuation. The office building is a typology that has quite specific roots in history and is shaped by the logic of economy, technology, and contemporary culture.Our project dismisses the traditional conception of the workplace and rethinks new paradigms that bring in the “lucidification” of work, which is the merging of play and work. It puts forward an architecture that is agile.
