Building Blocks, Färgfabriken
The “Building Blocks” project has now emerged as a vision of creating a common experience for all people regardless of age. A project based on the children’s experiences and their encounters with professional architects. Färgfabriken has a history of daring, testing and creating new contexts and unexpected constellations. But it has been long while since we created an exhibition where the perspective is based on children’s and adolescents’ experiences.
Working with children and young people also raises complex issues. We learn a lot and are truly grateful for all those who contribute their knowledge and expertise in children’s culture and offer advice and ideas. Our vision is a small city where the architecture is not conformal, but has the chance to communicate, be fun, exciting and unpredictable. Kjellander Sjöberg clients Forat and Akram, both 15 years old.
