Edwin Burdis creates a new sound piece for P.E.A.R.

We are really excited to launch our brand new blog with a brand new sound piece by artist Edwin Burdis, made for the fourth issue of P.E.A.R. (Paper for Emerging Architectural Research). The fourth issue of the paper considers dwelling and in Burdis’ sound work P.E.A.R. seemingly becomes dwelling: the 'Grand Pear' is a mass housing project with a difference, and as this blog is going to become a second home for the paper it seems a fitting place to start.

P.E.A.R. Issue 4 is out now.

The fourth issue of the paper is available from all good bookshops - see stockist list for information.
