DESCRIPTION:Jacob Schlüssel\, FAR\, Construction and Architecture Laborat
 ory\, EPFL\nTHE EXTRACTION OF VALUE\nMEASURE\, MATERIALS AND CRAFT\n\nGuid
 ed tour\nTuesday 15 December 2026\, 5.30-6.15pm\n\nFrom design to construc
 tion\, where does the true ingenuity of building construction lie? The Ex
 traction of Value shifts the focus of architectural knowledge towards the
  tools that measure\, mark out and align a building during its constructio
 n. Over 300 historical instruments\, collected over several decades and fr
 om various regions of the world by the architect Paolo Tombesi\, form the 
 core of this exhibition. Spirit levels\, gauges\, templates\, graduated ru
 lers and plumb lines are presented as veritable repositories of technical 
 knowledge\, with each tool symbolising choices relating to precision\, dis
 tribution and the nature of the work.\n\nTo showcase this collection\, Arc
 hizoom has joined forces with USM\, whose furniture – based on a rigorou
 s grid system\, precise assembly and flawless regularity – provides the 
 ideal setting for an exhibition dedicated to the sense of measurement.\n\n
 An exhibition organised in collaboration with Prof. Paolo Tombesi and Jaco
 b Schlüssel\, from the FAR Construction and Architecture Laboratory at EP
