Halfforms – Halfways is a publication documenting the architectural research project Halfforms developed between 2023 and 2025, marking the midpoint of the funded research period. The book brings together the project’s main architectural works, material studies, experimental methods, and theoretical concepts, alongside related teaching formats and pedagogical experiments. Rather than presenting finalized results, the publication reflects the research as an ongoing process, tracing how questions of material agency, design, and construction have evolved through practice-based investigation. By assembling projects, protocols, and reflections across different scales and contexts, Halfforms – Halfways offers an interim account of the research and opens a perspective on its future development.
