Abstract
Progress towards a viable development of the built environment entails a series of inter-disciplinary challenges that needs to be addressed collectively. In architectural practice, these challenges necessarily call for a reworking of our ways of working (how and with whom do we collaborate?) as well as the work of architecture itself (how and with what do we built?). With this ‘Critical Practice’ submission, the prototype itself provides a view in-to how this necessary rework takes shape as a collective ‘bottom up’ effort in the practice of David Chipperfield Architects. By mapping out the interdisciplinary knowledge gath-ered in and of the prototype, we discuss its critical potential towards gradual change of the confining conditions of ‘usual practice’. The prototype in question, developed as a com-petition entry for Hufelandstraße in Munich, exemplifies how the individual competencies of each team member can be activated collectively in reworking the resourcefulness of the entire body of architectural construction.
