PLAYTIME (named after Jacques Tati’s 1967 satire of Modernism) consists of 2 solid acrylic paint elements (based on the demolished concrete remains of Robin Hood Gardens) and an industrial steel base, all conforming to Le Corbusier’s Modulor Rule. 

Designed as a tool for reimagining potential in condemned architecture, the elements can be rearranged in a multitude of configurations, some of which can be seen below.
