Whole> the sum of its parts: space 3



In my third space, my concept revolves around the passage of time. Like my second space, this one also makes reference to the implied arch of a swinging pendulum, but the main focus of the project is on the unchanging rhythm as time slowly passes away. In this, both ends of human history are represented in this space. Using the kit of parts that includes the two “solids,” I designed two curvilinear forms that embody these ideas. The first is an arched wall that leads into an embedded curve in the floor, with the wall continuing out the other side. This will be done in a modern, industrial material to represent our current modern age. The second is another curved wall that is enclosed on one end. This form makes reference to our original primordial dwellings, which are part of our rich past as residents of this planet.
