Dis(s)tress


The language of architecture is a vague term used to classify them selves. What it means is rather defined which rather confines which rather puts into a fixation of constraints.
"Witness" rather to be 'experienced' which is a linear technology as it requires an address and a start of lines...
A state of time, which see around a world of constraints, which see an opposing origin. Radicalism. RADIX. An opposing/ derogatory language abusing to the world of so called "purity".
"Get off my cloud"
Coop Hamilton - language- of- rather- buildings is a brilliant usage of deconstruction and post modernist architecture. Architecture to comment on these manifestations of the architectural neo avant - garde, vilifying the presumed aesthetization of the style and parodying its false motives.
The work of Eisman and Tschumi strive towards willful and theoretical deformation towards the metrically problematical solution to existing confusing traditional mass.
Architects/ theorists such as Eisman and Tschumi used their own writings to legitimize their architectural projects – a self reflexivity that isn’t without a merit, at least as a limiting point for radicalizing the trajectory of built form.
Coop – Hamilton upsets the purists’ nature of the projects with deliberately apologetic program, , allowing the sheer force using the innate aspects of architecture – such as tension, counterbalance their works, allowing the sheer force of building materials to impact upon their structural selves and inducing a struggle from within the actual materials.
What is rather seen is a result of stripping which results over action and a reaction.
The resulting forms are a search beyond – mere physics – a result of time.
Destroying in order to Recover…
