Description

Delve into the complex interplay between advanced structural engineering and the often-hidden realities of construction quality. This collection exposes the critical vulnerabilities within our built environment, from specific technical failures to the profound societal and ethical breakdowns that underpin them. It’s a journey into the ‘3D Ego’ of our structures and the systems that shape them.
