Forensic Architecture is a project run in collaboration with the Center for Research Architecture at Goldsmiths University of London, which explored the role of architecture and spatial analysis within contemporary legal procedures. We worked with UN Special Rapporteur Ben Emmerson on a report that addressed the impact of drone strikes on civilians and the issues of government transparency and drone strike documentation. Another case study investigated genocide and environmental violence in Guatemala in the early 80s. Each of these reports was presented in an interactive platform that we built. They were also part of the Forensis exhibition at HKW in Berlin.
