Précis
Our life, our work and our buildings are a progression, evolving and changing. There is hope, success and failure, but always a direction. We learn, we adapt and we move forward. There is an eagerness to explore and discover what is unknown. There are surprises, rewards and hopefully a level of recognition in the end.
Architecture has to be experienced dynamically by moving through it. The plan must be a sequence of discovery, so that each space would contain within it the anticipation of other spaces. Views would be hidden, partially revealed or held in reserve. There is a desire to set up expectations then confound them, or in a sequence; arouse, confuse and reveal. One must bring the observer to the heart of the plan in a state of increasing anticipation.
Fluid: tending to flow or conform to the outline its container
Fluidity: the process of flowing easily[1]
It is my goal to create the fluid space; a space where the materials, the observer, the architecture and the function must be interrelated in order to perform. Each piece of the puzzle affects the whole. In my program; the observer, the water, and the garden are the elements that transverse the architecture with various moments of rest and motion. There is a simultaneity of mutual dependencies between the elements where the interaction exploits the greatest potentials in each individual element. However, only through the experience of the circulation and the fluidity of the observer is it realized. There is expectation, anticipation, confusion and understanding.
