Week Two: Electroliquid Aggregation

Sigmund Freud and Isaac Newton:

Isaac Newton and Maria Agnesi:

Maria Agnesi and Sigmund freud:

Week One; Developed Axonometric

The intention is to provide an illusion of lightness and fragility in the part hanging over the water, while contradictorily its more robust base lays within the earth. This is to express and support the hypotheses that various elements of the building change according to their geographic situation.

Week One; Hypotheses and Axonometrics

Isaac Newton:

"The geometrical relationship (the buildings interaction) changes with the landscape and its changing/developing/varying momentum".

"All forms are dependent upon a central power"

- [based on theory that motions of objects on earth and of celestial bodies are governed by the same natural power].

Maria Agnesi

"Breaking conformity can lead to powerful architecture"

"A mathematically, geometrically defined architecture should involve, and hence educate, its surrounding environment and people"

Sigmund Freud:

"We need an illusion of power and the super-natural to function logically"

"Architecture should conform to the human form".
