The Wrath of the 3 Mighty Babas: London’s Romanian Citizenship Application Centre

Part 1 Project 2019

Set in 2023, the project assumes that not only is post-Brexit UK no longer a desirable place for Romanians to live and work, but that Romania is the desired destination for UK citizens. The project, which has reinvented traditional Romanian Architectural design and decoration to create a new Modernist architecture for the country’s flourishing future, is a place where UK citizens may undertake the comprehensive cultural assimilation process necessary for Romanian Citizenship. Candidates will live and work in this thriving, busy centre where Romanian food, culture, architecture, (and goats) are celebrated and valued. At the end of the process, rather than dealing with a faceless bureaucrat, it is the ‘mighty Babas’, the grandmothers and matriarchs, who make the final decision as to who is awarded a visa.
