Edition Office is an architecture studio based in Melbourne, Australia. Through the execution of its built work and research, the practice is creating an ongoing series of figures, relics, stories and relationships; all continuing a greater investigation into material & spatial practice.
Edition Office strives to constantly experiment with techniques and materials to uncover new processes or to re-articulate the old. Their work is entirely dissonant, to themselves, to their clients, to their sites and landscapes. Their work is entirely sympathetic, to themselves, to their clients, to their sites and landscapes. They celebrate grit and raw materiality, knowledge and care.
The architecture studio, directed by Kim Bridgland and Aaron Roberts, engages with their work as a long-form negotiation between a series of modifiers (people/place) and conditioning objects (buildings/relics). They design houses and buildings that exist within the layered realms of their environment, their place. These built projects act as an interface between a place and its occupier and set up an ongoing relationship of colliding adjacencies, where the latent histories of each party are bled into the next.
