Immersive Catalog of Housing Systems in Faktur
Exploration of the daily life lived inside 20 architectural sites across Europe and Asia that represent spatial moments of collectivity were documented with an Insta360Pro camera. The project was completed in 2017 over the course of three months and 24,000 miles of travel, a distance equal to that of the earth's circumference.

For the SOM Traveling Fellowship for Architecture, Design and Urban Design, Lindsey Wikstrom proposed a project entitled “An Immersive Catalogue of Housing Systems” and included an itinerary of key architectural sites in Asia, Europe, and North America where, “the living environment is a product of a convergence of markets, demand, and social vitality.”
To interrogate the value of physical public space within a traditionally domestic sphere, the housing projects visited are characterized by an interplay of actors, where the notion of a self-contained unit is rejected in favor of a collective network, where places and spaces act less as an aggregation of isolated rooms and more as an evolving product of engagement, and where everyday life becomes the product of a gradient between the individual, the collective, and the city.
The research, conducted from the inside out by living within the projects, creates a collection of photography and drawings that can be viewed by all. Immersive representation brings viewers into the shoes of residents to personally experience the more ephemeral and nuanced everyday moments.
