Følg tilblivelsen af policy-laboratoriet HouseEurope! To Build Law følger arkitektfirmaet bplus.xyz (b+) og undervisnings- og forskningsplatformen station.plus (s+), mens de etablerer HouseEurope! med det formål at foreslå reformer i byggebranchen og ændre kulturelle normer.

To Build Law, produceret af Canadian Centre for Architecture, er det andet kapitel af Groundwork, en film- og udstillingsserie i tre dele, der udforsker den konceptuelle udvikling og feltforskning hos moderne arkitekter, der dyrker alternative praksisformer. Filmen observerer nøje b+-teamet i forskellige faser af konceptualisering og udvikling af et europæisk borgerinitiativ, der har til formål at fremme renovering frem for nedrivning og nybyggeri. Gennem dette bottom-up juridiske værktøj bliver arkitektur en åben proces med at etablere partnere, udarbejde lovgivning, filme historier, strategisere kommunikation, koordinere kampagner, indsamle stemmer og opbygge en bevægelse.

• Filmen blev udtænkt af Francesco Garutti og Irene Chin og instrueret af Joshua Frank.
• Filmen vil blive præsenteret af HouseEurope! Initiativtagere Olaf Grawert i samarbejde med OBEL Award
