Gabriel Poole folks. More shots here. Poole designs houses in which the soul can play.
In that little word 'play' you can hear echoes of the Situationist International.
And he designs funky beach shacks that are site specific:
Beach shacks in a world of process and becoming. Does this point to poetic dwelling?
It discloses a way of dwelling on the ground of the earth. One in which we tread lightly because of the fragility of the earth. Poole's architecture understands that the earth matters.
It allows us to become the light ones attuned to the song of the beach. It becomes our poetry; a poetry that shows the primacy of place.
