Latest News - STEVEN HOLL SUPPORTS

As we continue to edit, our fundraising efforts are continuously being exhausted. Good moments are sprinkled throughout rough times as we begin to truly endure the reality of our current economic landscape in its relationship to the arts. We continue to charge forward and applaud/showcase graciously anyone who sees the potential in the project such as the office of Steven Holl.

Back to the editing station, freelancing and keeping our fingers crossed.

Film Synopsis
Archiculture is a feature length documentary that examines contemporary issues surrounding the realm of architecture through the perspective of university students during their final thesis semester. The film follows the protagonists through the evolution of their respective senior thesis projects and the internal and external conflicts each student faces during this intense year-long process. Interviews with family, friends, significant others, industry professionals, architects, and design professors are woven throughout the film to create a story that builds an intimate connection between the characters and the audience. The emotional storyline will reveal a breadth of experiences ranging from the 4AM deadline dash, to the fulfilling sensation of graduation. The film provides viewers with an in-depth look into the creative yet competitive process of architectural education while also depicting current issues such as the role of architecture in society, the disproportion of gender and race within the profession, and environmentally conscious design. The story is structured in a way that chronologically follows the students’ development of their theses and continually builds suspense as the final critique looms. The film concludes at the students’ final thesis presentation as they find themselves on the brink of their adult and professional lives, and the closure of their adolescence.

Introducing the Donate to Design Widget

This is where we showcase the current financial standing of the film and try to engage you for support. To date we have raised and invested close to $66,000 into the project. We need to reach $240,000 to finish the film. We know this sounds like a lot, but a feature length documentary film is not cheap. Even if you try to do one on a shoe string budget like ours. If you like what you see here, we ask for your support. This is a grass roots project being created by a few individuals who have invested everything they have to share the story of the architectural studio. If you or anyone you know has the ability to support, please ChipIn, copy the widget or visit our support page.
