Eagles of Architecture Expo “Baby, I’m home”* opens at auau in Hamburg (DE)

“Baby, I’m home”*

Eagles of Architecture search for architecture that holds life, that makes room for the human, and that can become someone’s home. Eagles of Architecture ask what allows space to be lived in, what turns construction into a place of intimacy and memory.

Their work moves between drawing, model, and building, between thought and making. Models play a central role in this process. At smaller scales (1:200 to 1:50), the office investigates spatial relations and concepts, testing how a project unfolds. At 1:10, the model shifts toward the human body. Material, joint, and detail are approached through touch and proximity. Here, architecture is no longer abstract, but experienced measured through tactility, proportion, and care.

At the same time, the model is an open medium, a shared ground for dialogue. It invites conversation, interpretation, and collective reflection. It can be circled, pointed at, questioned, and discussed. In this sense, it becomes not only a tool for thinking, but a way of communicating architecture.

For Eagles of Architecture, the model is not a representation but a way of thinking. At 1:10, it becomes the final step between idea and inhabitation, allowing space to be sensed and tested.

Eagles of Architecture present their work through 1:10 models, where each project is tested as a constructed reality rather than represented. They bring their most recent housing projects in model form to Hamburg. In these models, Eagles of Architecture show different moments and ways in which the human scale is embedded within a house, allowing it to become a home.
