TWO CONCEPTS
Architect 1: SOU FUJIMOTO
- To produce an organic and ultimately, an aesthetically pleasing architecture; Fujimoto implements intricacy in the arrangements of similar geometries rather than the complexity of geometries themselves

- His architecture seems extremely delicate and frail hence presumably abandons the traditional concept of tectonics; the art of interrelating architecture and engineering.

- The prominent use of plain white sub assemblies makes his architecture appear to be like a digital model.

- His works possess the notion of being incomplete and underdeveloped to evoke a sense of limitless possibilities and architectural potential.

-Fujimoto intends to design architecture that interacts with the environment so transparency to induce exposure of was extremely important.

Architect 2: FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT

- Wright’s architecture incorporates ornament-free exterior and advocates the traditional idea of tectonics and structural integrity.

- He evokes simple structural organisation with prominent use of horizontal elongated layout.

- The interior plan is extremely spacious as inspired by modern architecture.

- Wright integrates his architecture into the environment to emphasize both the landscape and the aesthetics of his work.

- His architecture can be perceived as dynamic since the whole exteriors appear differently as the climate of the environment change.

MASH-UP STATEMENT
To achieve an organic and complex architectural structure as my marker; I decided to implement complex arrangements of simplistic geometries to arouse the interrelation between these paradoxical notions. These geometries would include both slim, delicate prisms and thick elongated prisms. This is to evoke the aesthetic impact from the combining of such opposing geometries.
