Connection Part 2 Project 2024 Mubeen Akhtar Coventry University | UK We can do without architecture if it is driven by power management, consumption, dominance, or selfish expression.The concept of ‘public luxury’ creates a sense of hierarchy. As though a tyrant has allowed the peasants under his domain access to a scrap piece of land and called it a ‘luxury’ to be grateful for. Public luxury does not exist, what does exist is the fundamental entitlement of the use of space by anyone. Therefore, the term public luxury is not just an oxymoron but an insult to the value of humanity and individuality.Space is realized and visualized in the mind before actualizing as a product, which is produced through occupation. Harness the conceptual space of the mind to implant a thought, expressed through simple geometry, enabling the creation of an instrument that cultivates an ideology to challenge power structures, education systems, Architects, and society. Influencing a thought towards a connection between people to form a movement that brings a sense of power back to people. A control of their destiny. Cutting consumption and increasing connection through self-care and care for others guided by morals, logic, movement, and communication. Realizing the power of communities that are connected around the globe. Tutor(s) Becky Bubb Philippa Skipp
