4/25/2017 - The Fifth Obstruction: On Architectural Autonomy
"It is only in that instant when the laws are silent that great actions erupt."
The page is blank. We can pick and go anything we want. Anything. So where to start? Where to end? I had no idea. So i thought back to the beginning, all the projects that we have done over the semester and what would fit in the "what next" category. I thought back to the Maison Curutchet. Then I thought about how I felt when I got assigned to Professor Carranza's studio. When he told us that we would be working on Le Corbusier and his works. The first thought in my head was, "I hate Le Corbusier" and we would be working with his works all semester. I think the reasons were I just didn't understand his works, I didn't get them I thought they were boring.
So I decided to put myself into his shoes and work with what he worked with. The 5 Points of Architecture. Pilotis, free plan, free facade, horizontal windows, and roof garden. Using the rules he applied to himself, I want to see what I could come up with.
