Axonometrics!



Rem Koolhaas

Integrity of form.
A sense of vertical hierachy to enhance the building complex


Simplicity is complexity

Form doesn't follow concept.

Using materials to relate to surrounding environment. 
Unique exterior shapes to relate to interior spaces.

 Mies Van Der Rohe

Architecture is not the structure, it's the space the structure creates. 
Extreme clarity and simplicity to achieve a sense of flow.

Creating balance with seemingly unbalanced forms.

Details can be monumental.

Reflect the ideas on the building in an abstract way.

The skin of the building can define interior space.
