TABLE OF CONTENTS An installation by Luis Urculo for BOX “Table of Contents” is a list of parts of a project document organized in the order in which the parts appear. Is not about a final image but the possibility of it. The space is used as the first chapter of a book to be written. The drawings of fragments, traces, structures and unfinished geometries are presented as built objects. BOX is a storefront, a display for Desire. Like a hardware store full of pieces and objects ready to be used as a space of possibility, therefore it draws a link with the viewer to trace the next step in the installation, the construction of a story, a structure or a new storefront. Luis Urculo’s work is characterized by an unusual portrayal of architecture in the form of illustrations, animations, installations, and interiors. He studied at the ETSAM Madrid, at the Illinois Institute of Technology Chicago and at the Institute of Design and has collaborated with Alberto Campo Baeza, Mansilla-Tuñon and Izaskun Chinchilla. In 2006, he opened his own studio developing ephemeral architecture projects, stage designs and video-installations for Conde Nást, Philippe Starck and Sybilla, among others. His work has been exhibited at the XI Bienale di Architettura di Venezia, Montevideo Bienial, COAM Foundation and other locations. He also works as a teacher with Jaime Hayón for Master of European Design Labs at Instituto Europeo di Design, Madrid. Luis visited LYNfabrikken back in 2012, where he gave a talk during LYNtalks.

Luis Urculo has studied architecture and design and opened his own studio in 2006. He develops works of small and indefinite architecture in an opened format, and simply explains his unique approach by saying: “I no longer know what architecture is and what an architect should do”. Luis is always interested in all that is peripheral to architecture, the processes, developments and approaches that can be manipulated, sampled and translated into other scales, adapting to the composition of the project, creating new scenes, experiences and expectations that have not been contemplated previously.
