Order of Power is a project looking at the relationship between infrastructural and domesticity. Set within the context of Seoul, South Korea as a city of intervention, the project proposes using infrastructural lines as way of organising the city. Giving form to an otherwise formless network that has immense influence and power over our quotidian lives.
The infrastructural networks partitions the city into large urban rooms. This urban ground condition, as pockets of different functions and programs, providing for the most mundane to the most hedonistic of activities, yet, ironically being bound and subservient to the infrastructural forces at play.
