Spatial Documentation

The Karu Archive: Light, Material, Proportion

A curated index of built environments, captured on medium-format film with unassisted natural daylight. Each study emphasizes raw material junctions and authentic shadow depth.

Scandinavian Studies

Documenting Light and Form

Six recent medium-format film studies, meticulously documenting how natural light interacts with cast concrete, lime plaster, and timber across Northern European architecture.

Our Protocol

Three-Stage Archival Process

Solar Inclination Mapping

Medium-Format Film Capture

Archival File Delivery

We begin by mapping the site's solar orientation and seasonal light patterns to schedule optimal capture times for authentic natural daylight exposure.

Utilizing medium-format film, we document the built environment, focusing on raw materials, structural proportion, and inherent shadow depth.

Publication-ready files are delivered, suitable for architectural monographs and precise site documentation, preserving the honest weight of materials.
