about

2AeM is a cooperative design effort composed of the 3 young Midwestern-sprung, spread-the world-out, out-and-out Architecture student-architects: nicholas m. reiter, Jessie Wilcox and Peter Nguyen. The team base was originally Milwaukee, WI but since has become a mobile abstraction or a state of mind. 2AeM is sometimes physical, sometimes sober, partially virtual, usually vocal, and all-the-time IN-it.

We are track jumpers, demons, villains and observing you right now. Design is the New and so are the Stakes.

this post is long over due, but only recently caught a chance to snap some photos.
for those interested; dimensions are roughly 6' x 8'. it weighs more than you'd care to know, but i've got it up on casters.

i've repurposed some found shipping pallets from a nearby residence doing some remodeling. ripped them down. and integrated a set of 36 plaster tiles i cast from clay, coated in 2 part rubber, and filled with plaster. more on the process.

the piece is rough, raw, and simple connections all honor the same inherent qualities of the palettes. i was interested in using repetition as a visual quality and complement the warm, raw nature of the wood with the white, smooth qualities exhibited by the plaster.

for now. enjoy the photos.
