The Aesthetics of Hope & The Newest Basilica of Guadalupe

Part 2 Project 2017
Andres Souto
Royal College of Art | UK
The Aesthetics of Hope investigates architecture made outside the boundaries of official culture through the investigation of the self-built tiny chapels of the unregulated settlements of Mexico City and the SketchUp 3D Warehouse.

The project explores the methods and processes in which popular culture appropriates and interprets official architecture and speculates on how these might evolve and give way to a new style in architecture.
