Constellations of Compliance Building Codes changed building codes and changed history. Concerns about life safety began to overcome the economic concerns of building own- ers and developers. As time has passed the strenuousness of build- ing codes has increased. A trend toward more safety in buildings (and thus more expensive buildings) leads this project to imagine what more extensive building codes generate beyond safety. What new interactions can architects encourage while also complying with the codes of the future? New interactions can produce new economies, new forms of socialization, and new ways of seeing ones neighborhood producing Constellations of Compliance. Here an exploration of possible coded futures are imagined using the site of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory, the NYU Brown building in Manhattan New York.

Constellations of ComplianceBuilding Codeschanged building codes and changed history. Concerns about life safety began to overcome the economic concerns of building own-ers and developers. As time has passed the strenuousness of build-ing codes has increased. A trend toward more safety in buildings (and thus more expensive buildings) leads this project to imagine what more extensive building codes generate beyond safety. What new interactions can architects encourage while also complying with the codes of the future? New interactions can produce new economies, new forms of socialization, and new ways of seeing ones neighborhood producing Constellations of Compliance.Here an exploration of possible coded futures are imagined using the site of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory, the NYU Brown building in Manhattan New York.
