How do immigrant workers relate to the families they work for? And how are they shaped by that relationship? What does it mean to leave one’s own home in order to care for the homes of others? And, at another scale, how does a country position itself towards the immigrants it receives? These questions frame the project. The stage becomes a place where private relations and broader social structures briefly overlap.
A stage set is not necessarily more fictional than any other architectural project. The difference lies in its directness. Its walls are deliberately thin, almost provisional, existing primarily to project meaning rather than to contain space. The design is conceived as a modular system, capable of adapting to different theatres, stages, and spatial constraints. Its components are deliberately modest: MDF panels, thin metal profiles, corrugated sheets, and paint. Ordinary materials assembled with clarity and efficiency form a temporary architecture whose purpose is not permanence, but the precise staging of a situation.
