Stargala’s practice, Of Here, investigates how architectural processes can be physical and hyper-proximal, in order to remain engaged with the land and its entanglements. Through vernacular research, site analysis, material experimentation, and design, the practice recognises and responds to these interdependencies. The studio views contemporary architecture not only as a construction for shelter, but also as a set of values which demonstrate our relationship to other living beings, ecologies and finite resources.
