Theory- brief 5




Here's my final brief for the thoery course. The topic was Program and Projection and the week's reading was Supermodernism by Hans Iberling. The discussion focused on the recent trend of Proposal Architecture with a rendered or even animated architectural proposal becomes a cultural magnet and a new generation of the 1960s paper architecture. In both cases there was a critical approach towards program and not just form. One glossy proposal discussed was the WTC proposal by United Architects, see http://www.imaginaryforces.com/if.html

Also reviewed were OMA proposals print and animated.
