ByDesign 2015
APRIL 10 - 14, 2015
Co-presented with Civilization
ByDesign, our annual architecture and design film festival, returns in a new partnership with Seattle design firm Civilization. This year's film lineup roves the architectural terrain of tiny houses, the history of typography, the interiors of 1977's psychic landscapes, a German architecture firm captured through the lens of the late Harun Farocki in one of his last films, and more.
ByDesign brings together a diversity of people, ideas and creative visions to explore intersections of design and the moving image. The program celebrates artists who combine forms and disciplines to transform our visual culture. Join us for an opening party and array of guest artists and speakers, documentaries, panel discussions that illuminate the roots, currents and future of design in motion.

Sauerbruch Hutton Architects
Seattle premiere!
Co-presented with Civilization
Apr 14
(Harun Farocki, Germany, 2013, 73 min)
"Architects at work: a priori nothing lends itself better to cinema, nothing is more graphic than shots that alternate between the drawing and the built structure, between the two-dimensional plan and the three dimensional result. Yet this film, with its corporate-sounding title, shot over three months in a large Berlin-based firm abandons this clarity to instill a generalised doubt not so much about the value of those it films as about its own critical viewpoint." Charlotte Garson, Cinema du Reel
