Quirks + Perks






It is crucial to pursue objective truth and yet you must remember to also inject your novel quirks and perks into your design / method. 

If you are obsessed with the brain stimulating puzzles like the Rubik's cube, or coding (binary) and algorithms, maybe magnets is your persuasion?! Perhaps you are obsessed with musical instruments or the Fibonacci sequence and the Golden Ratio. Is it Space? Stardust - Atoms; Electrons, Photons, Quarks, Neutrinos, et al. Maybe you simply like hats or fascinated with colours and how light reflects and refracts. The “funny bone” (the ulnar nerve) and the sensations or with how a ladybug wings fold or maybe shoelaces strike a cord. You owe yourself the justice of thinking and exploring how these wondrous factors can inform your design and approach. We, your audience, want to celebrate the joy of your eccentric (expressive contribution). Induce the geek and take us on the journey with you!

What is “Architecture”?

What is “Architecture”? Think of Ernő Rubik and his invention of  the “Rubik’s Cube” (a ‘spherical device with hollow core and an  arrangement of interlocking projections on the back of the cubes,  too cunning to describe with words. A single central cube on each  face fixed to a three-axis cross locked everything together, but, like  wheels on an axle, the cubes were free to rotate in a single plane.’)  which he developed as an exercise in the manipulation of space  and volumes, which might, he hoped, engage the minds of his architecture  students. Or, think of it as a musical instrument such as a “violin”, for example;  a multi purpose/functional object/device. By this I mean; a  sculptural object with aesthetic qualities + functional as it inspires  interaction which stimulates the dexterity of your brain and the surrounding  environment with vibration (sound).
