Food & Architecture

My thesis project has recieved a working-name (stated in the title, above) and I'm spending my saturday night reading and writing the project descripition.
I came across a book named Eating Architecture that I found interesting at first look and luckily even more interesting after reading the introduction (available as pdf online).

I'll leave you with a parallel between the consumption of a meal and the production of space, as seen by Sarah Wigglesworth. This is her London terrace house, on 9 Stock Orchard Street, that is based on the clinical mapping of a dinner party.

Miralles Drawing

Complexity from Enrick Miralles
Reblogged from bartlettyear1architecture.blogspot.com
The drawing lacks heirarchy. Miralles has no interest in establishing a clear heirarchical reading of the drawing. There is no variation in line weight (although occasionally, he doubles lines closely enough to approximate a thicker stroke). Mobile objects: tables, doors, etc. are not accorded any status distinct from stationary objects. The swings of doors and cupboards are not given a lighter line. Even the heirarchy of drawings is flattened: this drawing was not one of a set, and in it elevations are projected into the same plane, even the same paper space as the plan. Indoor-outdoor are not accorded any heirarchy: the drawing spills into outdoor spaces.

Plan under construction

It's getting cleaned up, complexity is added, and I'm also trying out some textures for that sweet style
