Architecture is not about the conditions of design, but about the design of conditions. Architecture is not so much a knowledge of form, but a form of knowledge. Architecture is the discourse of events as much as the discourse of spaces. Architecture is not only what it looks like, but also what it does. Vectors activate; envelopes define. Architecture is the materialization of concepts. Concept, not form, is what distinguishes architecture from mere building. Architects don’t choose contexts; they choose concepts.
Bernard Tschumi, Architecture: concept & notation

EXCELLENT ADVICE FROM BERNARD TSCHUMI - DO NOT START WITH A FORM!!!!!




BERNARD TSCHUMI - DESIGN APPROACH
the importance of concept…..spatial configurations……strategies…..but first: take the program, introduce circulation, test alternatives, begin conceptual work.

Several early theoretical texts were illustrated with Advertisements for Architecture, a series of postcard-sized juxtapositions of words and images. Each was a manifesto of sorts, confronting the dissociation between the immediacy of spatial experience and the analytical definition of theoretical concepts. The function of the Advertisements —reproduced again and again, as opposed to the single architectural piece—was to trigger desire for something beyond the page itself. When removed from their customary endorsement of commodity values, advertisements are the ultimate magazine form, even if used ironically. Because there are advertisements for architectural “products,” the logic of the Advertisements for Architecture asks, Why not advertisements for the production (and reproduction) of architecture?

so when are you starting your Minecraft YouTube book club
this made me laugh so much first thing in the morning. disregarding my fear of book clubs do you think people would let me do bachelard's poetics of space or is this the moment i finally actually read any of the bigger theorists i reference but refuse to read out of sheer unbroken having avoided them for a decade despite my life choices.
#peter answers#historically book club has led to pneumonia & curses. but im kind of better now#actually the first meeting would have to be bernard tschumi's website#at the meeting we'd take turns screensharing explorations flaneur-like through it.#don't tempt me
