"CHANGING THE SCALE CHANGES THE ATMOSPHERE" - Junya Ishigami.

Similar to the ideas of enhancing the scale and atmosphere of the site used in conceiving the folie; scale can be highly influential the final composition of a design through its application to varying spaces.

In terms of icon: my intent is to configure my development around the iconic figure which is the Story Bridge, this will become an integral component of my design through its contextual, structural and historical relevance. I intend to not only respond, but utilise its existence.

IDEAS+INSPIRATION

-Designers make things... but these are not always the discrete things for which one gets paid. The simplest study can yield an idea, effect, or emotion. Printing, binding, programming, and building don't necessarily have anything to do with it. A designer's 'things' happen at every stage of a design process; they are always finished, and never finished."

-Michael Rock

-the mystery would only add a bit of cache to the proceedings

-The city has often been conceptualised as a living organism where different parts combine together in the formation of a single compound. In contemporary science the organic metaphor has primarily to do with the idea of an evolutionary system where the whole is the outcome that emerges from ever-changing relationships between single components out of an external coordination on the substrate of a network of links: the metaphor therefore unifies spatial phenomena - like city form - with biological, social, scientific, economic and technological systems. Because evolution only happens with change, systems that do not change are destined to decline and death by increasingly reducing their adaptability to external challenges

-Sergio Porta

-All buildings are predictions. All predictions are wrong

-Stewart Brand

-Ornament and the form should appear so intimate that the ornament seems to have determined the form

-Henry van de Velde.

-Yes is more

-Bjarke Ingels

-The connections to society, place and human experience - call it context - are exactly what make good architecture great. Those connections are also what makes architecture interesting to people who aren't architects
-Karrie Jacobs

-unremittingly science enriches itself and life with newly discovered useful materials and natural powers... with new methods and techniques, with new tools and machines

-Gottfried Semper
