PHYLAOFFICE is a design office, research entity, and speculative think-tank. We engage in the execution of design, historical + analytical research, and impositions of potentials. We design, teach, write, draw, and make.
PHYLAOFFICE practices independently and participates in confederations of collaborative designers, historians, writers, academics, makers, and other interested parties. We seek to operate within the intersections of inter-disciplinarities.
PHYLAOFFICE is interested in the collective fragment and the individual whole. We work to reveal the dynamism and stasis that informs design + imposition. Informed design must present a position, posit a notion, clarify a condition, induce event, or foment potential.
PHYLAOFFICE revels in the urban, suburban, exurban, and rural. We wish to enmesh with these many contexts in order to comprehend the texture, fluidity, contradiction, brutality, arousal, softness, and beauty of the American landscape. We index this landscape through the deployment of architectures: spatial, structural, and infrastructural.
