From Alea to Agon Part 2 Project 2024 Caitlin Brangwyn Liverpool John Moores University Liverpool | UK Alea: A game of chance resulting in an outcome over which the players have no control. Agŏn: Competitive and knowledge based games where great skill is needed to succeed. ‘From Alea to Agŏn’ relies on the combination of fate and skill to create a scheme that brings together both existing and new communities. Alea shapes the initial stages of design to determine the placement of functions, whilst agon refers to the latter stages of the process in which the Architect works within the set constraints to develop a resolved scheme. Utilising an element of chance when dispersing amenities across the site avoids the creation of a hierarchical society characterised by gentrification. This aims to ensure that all residents are equal to one another regardless of location. Tutor(s) Dominic Wilkinson
