Invisible Studio "started as a voyage of self-build discovery" says Piers Taylor | VDF

  • In the second part of our VDF collaboration with film-makers Laura Mark and Jim Stephenson, we screen the first episode of the duo's Practice series, in which architect Piers Taylor of Invisible Studio explains why he built is own house in the woods.
    Mark and Stephenson's documentary series Practice focuses on the process of making architecture, and is made through engaging with the architects featured in their practice, on site and in their homes.
    "We felt that so many films and documentaries on architecture look at the finished building, and rather than focusing on what the architects have done, we wanted our series of films to investigate how they have done it and the work that goes on behind the scenes to create architecture," Mark told Dezeen.
    "Piers himself is already a public figure but we wanted to challenge this and look at what really drives him and his work."
    For the first episode, the film-makers joined Taylor in his studio and woods near Bath, where he has built his and his family's home on a half-acre slot of woodland.
    "I realised that I could have the life that I wanted," Taylor said. "I could live on a bit of bushland, it was close to a city and yet felt like it was in total wilderness. I could live and work in a way that made sense to me."
    The family constructed the house from scratch. "We built a house having to carry every single component down the track by hand," Taylor explained. "We built it ourselves as a sort of way of understanding how buildings went together."

    I have deep respect and admiration for Arch Piers, his ideas and work. May husband, Arch David Sifuma (deceased) and I enjoyed watching 'The house that 100K built.." Thank you for the demonstrated passion

    I've become a big fan of Piers Taylor. The Worlds Most Extraordinary Homes (I also just love Caroline Quentin), The house 100K built, Various interviews, all of which have so vastly deepened my understanding of architecture. He makes inspiring, well executed, functional, and daring design accessible and understandable, which it should be! You don't have to have a million dollar budget, but you can learn a lot from projects that do. He kind of demonstrates how to dig into that interior, and learn what a home is, as you personified, then expands the envelope. Wish I could find more of this instead of a lot of pretentious fads and bad reality TV . I do have to say I also like Grand Design.

    네...
    Invisible Studio...
    다만...
    Practice....
    Shelter의 입구이자 출구라 생각하라는거네요...
    여행이라는 표현보다는...
    그 안의 fuction의 다양함과 인간적인 공감 정서를 고려하지만...
    또...
    보이지 않는 만큼 서투네요..
    인간이 아닌것처럼...
    시스템의 일환 프로젝트의 일환으로 설정한다는 자체가 이미 visible한 한계를 드러내고 있는건지도...
    그 안에
    아마츄어인
    사람들은 고유하거든요...
    내가
    누구인가에
    대해 끊임없이
    생각하고...생각하고...
    Architecture의 한계는
    여기에서 옵니다...
    구성원도
    존중받아야 할
    자연의 일부여야 하지요...
    프로젝트만
    자연인게 아니라..
    관찰자 위치가..
    마치 신이 장난감을 가지고 놀듯 무성의해 보이네요...
    부품인가...?
    왜....가
    Invisible 합니다...
    무엇을 위해도요...
    가능성은 많은 다양함을 파생시키고 있습니다...
    다행히...
    대체가능하게..
    관찰자도 대체가능하게...
    자연은 자연이여야 합니다...
    최대한...
    ㅇWㅇ...응....ㅎ

    Is the looooooonnnnnnng doooooonnnnnnng on the sound track designed to induce a trance, a migraine or a quasi mystical pseudo intellectual architectaural (sic) experience. It seems distracting to me from an otherwise quite informative if very slooooowwww moooovvvviiiiing documentary. The actual content is interesting. Was it W.S who wrote ‘Brevity is the soul of wit’. : ). All the same, many thanks for taking the trouble to publish this : ).

    They're all middle class so of course they can afford to play in the woods with expensive lego.

      You sound bitter. That doesnt sound like something exclusive to middle class in modern UK. Do we even have a working class anymore?

      Either you have what you want, or you have all the reasons why you can't have that.
