The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

Salon de Ledoux is a small architectural sculpture that specifically responds to the unique models of cells and inner plant structures hold by the scientific collection of the University of Montpellier. De- and re-constructing architectural elements that reoccur in the proposals of French Neoclassical architect Claude-Nicolas Ledoux, Salon de Ledoux engages with the formal and conceptual qualities of these science models to propose a new interpretation of utopian architecture, an architecture in constant flow and change. Salon de Ledoux has been developed from Post-Specimen, an international collaborative research project initiated by Wolfgang Weileder.
