EXP 2 CONCEPTS

Olson Kundig

  1. Architecture is the intersection between the poetic and the rational
  2. Contradictory objectives; open to environment, yet closed to create privacy
  3. A space is not constrained by area inside the building, a space is shaped by it
  4. Architecture is a movement and it transforms its surroundings
  5. References homes as primitive places
  6. Architecture must be as intimate as a family member



Buckminster Fuller

  1. There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you its going to be a butterfly
  2. Love is metaphysical gravity
  3. Ideals of ephemeralisation; "doing more and more with less and less until you can do everything with nothing
  4. Simplicity is the true measure of complexity
  5. Reorganising the environment for prosperity
  6. "Nature is trying very hard to make us succeed, but nature does not depend on us. We are not the only experiment."
