Hatch Patterns don’t have a scale though they’re used to represent the real materials that are used on public space design in cities. The re-interpretation process that we propose consists on the physical drawing with plastic tape of some of these hatch patterns superimposed to surface of a square in Lisbon. This square will be a very crowded place in the center of Lisbon: Praça “Igreja de Sao Domingos”.
For your participation we ask you for something very simple: which hatch pattern would you use at Praça “Igreja de Sao Domingos”? This hatch has to be accompanied by a short text (no more than 140 characters) justifying your choice. The hatch can be one already designed or you can propose a new one. We have attached a dwg document and you only have to open it and replace the pattern with your superhatch.
All hatch patterns sended by portuguese office will be uploaded in this digital plattform in order to share the ideas and create a discussion about them. People will be able to comment the proposals and the hatch pattern more commented will be the pattern choosen to be drawn in real scale over the Praça “Igreja de Sao Domingos» during 7th of november.
The deadline to receive you superhatch will be the 15th of october.
If you want to participate, you can send us an email to pkmn.es@gmail.com and we will send you the instrucctions. Its very simple!
Looking forward to your SUPERHATCH!!!
