Jia Curated runs from 13 to 17 August at Pengembak Beach in Sanur, Bali.
Architecture in Scale gathers 25 models by Asian practices including Kengo Kuma + Associates, IBUKU, andramatin and Chang Architects.
Curator Charmaine Chan sets a simple condition: relationships with nature and climate must organise the building. A model helps test courtyards, voids, roofs and routes without relying on the finish of a rendering.
For those not travelling to Bali, the selection works as a list of practices and projects to investigate during the week.

An agenda becomes more valuable when it suggests what to learn, not only where to be.
What is worth looking for in these models?
Whether the project would still make sense if every plant were removed from the image. When light, water, ventilation and section truly depend on climate, nature stops being an accessory.
