This is an archive of essays, lecture notes, press cuttings and other text-based ephemera from Graven (we used to be known as Graven Images). Sometimes we write things. This is where we keep them.

For this exhibition we were one of 5 practices asked by The Lighthouse, Scotland’s Centre for Architecture, Design & the City to make proposals for coastal ‘machines’, which aim to encapsulate the changing social and environmental processes and rhythms that will shape our coastal regions in the next 50 years.

Our proposal, Sashimi Machine is an intervention that uses the brand as architecture. The function of the lido has been changed into a place to manufacture fantastic fresh seafood, making it the focus of health, wealth and pleasure and helping to redress the economic imbalance caused by the neglectful destruction of the Scottish fishing industry.
