A-S-A-P advocates the value of architecture as part of a broader social, political, technological and aesthetic discourse. It collects, exhibits and circulates spatial practices, via objects, texts and ephemera, and virtual media. A-S-A-P collapses space in time to advocate the urgency of the spatial environment and art and architecture as the defining acts of contemporary culture.
A-S-A-P celebrated the start of its inaugural year on December 12, 2011, launching the archive into orbit at the top of The Standard, New York.
