After writing the post I asked someone from the school to take a shot of the hallway as it is now. Apparently the stencils were removed last year. We will see if it worked as intended.

That was an interesting approach to the ‘design problem’ as the tools of architectural representation are usually drawings and models. One can definitely argue for the inclusion of theoretical text, as it is also a means of proposing intent. But the words that you used were more than intent. They were/are physical. So, through the installation you’ve left a mark and provoked, which is the aim of good design. Years after you’ve left, your ‘tag’ is still there. It reads quietly, ‘David was here’… graffiti ?
Now members of ‘Local 8’ have to work harder to remove your mark… by extension ‘weathering’ the building at a faster rate.
