2 CONCEPTS - PROJECT 2 SUBMISSION

To make things easier, I've compiled everything into a series of posts relating to the final submission of Project 2: The Space Between. This post focuses on the two concepts and their relationship to my chosen theme of technology.

THE THEME: TECHNOLOGY

- SOCIAL CONNECTIVITY: ARCHITECTURE AS A STAGE (Studio Gang)

Without technological advancements in super materials such as aerogels and improving the effectiveness of common techniques such as steel reinforcing of concrete, such organic forms cannot exist. In an attempt to create the 'stage-like' atmosphere of the overhang, manufacturing technologies were pushed to the limit.

- PRISM BASED GEOMETRIES AND REPETITION OF SHAPE (Mies Van Der Rohe)


It is through repetition and experimentation that expands the capabilities of technologies, and to discover innovation with current ones. Mies Van Der Rohe's style often follows simple horizontal and vertical geometries in repeating form. With the aid of technology, such designs exist in seemingly lightweight and efficient representations.
It should also be noted, technological code itself is a repetition of ones and zeros.
