EXP 3 The Bridge: FINAL SUBMISSION
Contemporary schools of architecture should reflect the avant-garde notion of combining evolutionary form-finding with rational optimization of space. By implementing a gradual transition from public to private - from cultural to civic - the experience of the school can be transformed into one of continuous variation, harnessing the essence of striking yet deliberate architecture.

News Article Mash-up re-worked
News Article Mash-up
The built environment is a conceptual playground where the imagination roams free. More and more there are landmarks bursting from within the confines of their rectilinear and physical law-abiding realities. Contemporary schools of Architecture should reflect this avant-garde notion that there is no fixed form in the ever-developing world. Buildings that examine critical architectural issues like our current interest in biological processes of constant change create an intimate / couple / between / evolutionary form-finding and optimization. My proposal for the design of this school should include a gradual transition from public to private - from cultural to civic - from conference to residential, a plan that turns a stroll around the block into an experience of continuous variation. Interweaving the mutability and mechanical beauty of construction sites with top-down organisation and bottom-up complexity harnesses the essence of striking yet rational architecture, a poignant vision with akaleidoscopic inventory.
"One way to be an architect is to believe that the voluntary constraints of good design transform the involuntary imprisonments imposed, unseen, by everything else."
