The projects presented here speak to a diverse and evolving suite of tools and methods tailored to reparative practice. These approaches are not additive to the architectural process—they are central to it. UG2’s focus on hands-on experimentation, collaboration, and critical reflection, these tools allow students to confront repair as both a technical and socio-spatial act.

The act of repair is often considered humble—functional, reactive, and confined to the background of design. Yet when viewed as a methodology, repair becomes a rich and nuanced framework through which architecture can engage with complexity, context, and care.
