Workshop for Weapons & Bombs, 1998

Before becoming a Free State, AVL wanted to make sure that the atelier was well-armed. Workshop for Weapons & Bombs was the unique result. Designed in 1998, the workshop was built from a shipping container and expanded with a fibreglass structure that ends in a sphere. This spherical space is the bedroom for the freedom fighter; the middle passage features an office space for writing manifestos; and the container holds a metal workshop and chemical laboratory where weapons and bombs can be made from simple household chemicals. The homemade weapons and bombs can be used for defence as well as attacks.
