WEEK 6 - EXP 2: THE SPACE BETWEEN; CONCEPTS

Architectural Concepts in relation to each respective architect:

  • Bernard Tschumi:
    • Configuration of space leads to balance
    • Deconstruction leads to construction
    • Freeform/ Seamlessness.
      • Creating seamless form from existing flaws (building from what is readily available or existent).
      • Continuous Participation/Movement established within building leads to balance; an integral component of architecture which allows the "completion" of a building's presence
    • "Meaning" overrides physicality. 
      • Translation of a message has high importance in the creation of Tschumi's architecture.
    • Main movement or circulation leads priority, leading to natural extraction of homogenous materials at last moment.


  • Yakov Chernikhov
    • Post-Modern/ Avant-garde drawings (Revolutionary drawings)
    • Manifestation 
    • Illumination
    • Grandeur
    • Incarnation in volumetric-spatial forms of human conceptions leads to new styles, rather than the reshaping of basic existing form.
      • New content formulates from new requirements
