hey, bojana, agree in full…. if everyone who gave their useless comment on how bad the project was, gave some constructive thought of which direction it is meant to take…. our evolutionary advancement would surprise mr. darwin himself, if he was able to witness it, that is….

@plankton

Im neither jealous nor frustrated (well im a little frustrated, but I live in a small town and its hard to get laid), and I was being objective, these WOULD make lovely vases. Id buy one if they were. I can imagine buying a bunch of them to make a ring on a table with the occaisonal florid orchid poking out, see that would totally work!

Asides from that hes kinda missed the train re organic buildings

this guy is the ubermensch of said architecture, he was doing it way back when, when noone else was, and referencing 50’s bubble membrane experiments to boot.

So please excuse us all for looking a little nonplussed

dear minnaert,
i agree with the comments above that for now all this
is art only and far from being architecture. could you therefor
please resubmit your entry in one year time once you have
proven how these spaces are going to be inhabited.

our friend aldo rossi said: architecture is made out of
architectures. i believe in this a lot. however architectures
are often made of of objects and your investiagtion poses
the question where it all begins. the greeks made plants
from stone and in the renaissance fabric has been
chiselled from marble.all this is organic too.
but is it part of a transformation process that at the end
leads to a building. with windows and these days with a
water- proff membrane.
where can i think in there, love, cook and shit?
i can’t see it yet.

mr. monsieur, if any of the words offended your inteligence, it would be far more interesting to read some sort of thought of your side…. that the rest of us humans can learn something from you and evolve further…

looking at how nature deals with problems (and clearly manages very succesfully!) is for sure worth exploring… now… how do we implement that in architecture that are human’s brain constructions is another matter… a brain has ability to go beyond what is there…. or at least i hope so…

I think this object is not a research, is just the result of a process that I have to believe because there are no images of it. That is why it seems banal or useless. Seeing the previous steps I could appreciate if the proposal has any sense.

In biology and medicine, epithelium is a tissue composed of layers of cells that line the cavities and surfaces of structures throughout the body. It is also the type of tissue of which many glands are formed.
It is also known as a load of old bollocks.
