Architecture Linked - Architect & Architectural Social Network

A literally revolutionary idea, Stephane Malka has designed a pocket of discontent in the urban fabric. A modular structure that is designed as an architecture of refuge for the discontented and the marginalized. I think this idea, while applicable to a great many time periods in human history, is the result of an age of rising discontent of citizens of many nations that feel their voices are not being heard.
