a way to see the world

The project, which has been presented to us by Professor Luis E. Carranza Phd., Roger Williams University, is an architectural investigation. This is an investigation into making people, rather, us think of our surroundings. An architecture which wakes us from our blase attitude to force us to realise we have been asleep. Only on the rare occasion do we recall how it is we came to be in the very room we now sit. This is an attempt to wake a campus from such a slumber.

This investigation begins with art in the form of a Juan Gris painting.

the building

So here is the landscape I came up with. This is a building imposed on a landscape which could have been prestine, as it were. As the glasses in the painting are, in a sort, an imposition on the painting I used the shape of them to reflect this in the building. The table has become the water and the different levels of which reflect the different layers in the painting the table seems to be at. This composition is ment to be set at the preverbial edge of the world.
