| summary |
To speak about Experimental Spatial Structures at first means to find the
right definition. Therefore we have to find definitions for three different
subjects experiment, space and structure.
Experiment - that means to perform scientific experiments. The attempt, the
test, the simulation, the model. To do experimental work, that means to take
measurements, to count, to compare, to try analyzing, to find out differences
between substances. In our case, the experimental character of our work is
impressed on working by using different methods to show the basic idea of
our theme. To act and to use the full-scale-models with your body. Space -
that means architectural space which is defined through architectural spatial
elements: wall, ceiling, floor, corner, staircase, way, opening, border, edge
and so on. So to speak the substances we need to do our experiments. Structure
- means order. The contemplation and the comparison of different spatial
structures allows the division of different basic subjects like: euclidian
structures or physical structures or the depth of space and so on. To analyze
or to design architectural space by using spatial structures as one possibility to
do architectural work. As a summary: the experiment or the attempt to show
architectural, spatial structures. Space and spatial structures are not only
impressed by forms but also and as a main thing by action and moving in
space. The role of full-scale modeling, of experimental work related to
“reality” in architecture is to simulate basic situations which are not
dependent on ideas how they are developed in particular. We try to give some
instructions or impressions of elementary architectural structures which can
be used as instruments to design space of life. |
