Framing Architecture: Photography, Representation, and Storytelling
Hosted by TenBerke, this salon explores image-making as part of architectural storytelling—from 2D drawings and renderings to historic images, construction photography, final photography, and emerging AI tools. In conversation with invited photographers, the discussion considers how images shape perception, communicate ideas, and construct architectural narrative over time.
Building the Image: Storytelling and Photography in Architecture
Architecture is rarely encountered first as a building. More often, it is understood through a sequence of images: drawings, renderings, archival material, construction photographs, publication images, and final project photography. These forms of representation do more than document a project; they shape how architecture is imagined, communicated, remembered, and shared.
Hosted by TenBerke, Building the Image: Storytelling and Photography in Architecture brings together a group of architectural photographers in conversation with the studio to examine image-making as an essential part of architectural storytelling.
Rather than treating the finished photograph as the sole visual artifact, the salon considers the full visual life of a project and the different tools that inform it over time: 2D drawings, renderings, historic images, construction photos, and completed building photography.
