Archrival invited architects, designers, artists and other creative ‘makers’ to participate in Global Workshop; a sub-project for the installation Arena Calcetto at the 2012 Venice Architecture Biennale. As part of an indoor + outdoor site specific work, Archrival called out for the production of custom made fussball players for the exhibition. Archrival was seeking experimental objects with diverse materiality and a high level of craftsmanship or design.
