URBAN TERRAINS

OUTL is a multidisciplinary practice and research lab focusing on diverse scales of architectural, landscape and urbanism. We work in-between the diverse aspects of the built environment, whether inside or outside, temporary or permanent, object or field, partial or whole, to create urban terrains through generative strategies. We believe that spaces do not exist as absolute forms but are active/passive agencies of reflexive urban systems. We operate across disciplines to find immanent and emergent opportunities. We investigate and create strategies of spatial production that test conditions of normalcy and exception. OUTL actively engages the urban terrain as sites of investigation and critical processes of spatial agency... The Urban Terrains Digital Lab is an educational platform to investigate design strategies through the study of diverse digital mediums to analyze the dynamic environmental, ecological systems of urban environments.
