What is the ultimate modernistic architecture?


The answers are complicated in minds.


but the exact words can be close to the ultimate fulfillment of the ‘less is more’ concept.

Getting to Z (Another Kind of A): “Egg” Acrylic-Casting Process

PDesign

Getting my initial epiphany of forms for Nocturne of the Limax maximus, which will be installed in MoMA’s lobby on November 17,  into its physical manifestation was a multilayered process, with each step leading to the next—and in strange ways going backward at times to maximize the potential of the previous step’s efficiency and interconnectedness with the subsequent steps of production.

I begin by immediately refining my initial “third eye” images into drawings using 3-D drafting methods, as these renderings will be useful for communicating with the upcoming CNC fabrication; CNC fabrication digitally creates forms to be used as models, which in turn will be used to create the molds to be cast (in the case of the acrylic aspects). In this case, the Rhino program was used for initial 3-D drafting.












in this way there is a strange inside-out quality to the process; the technical, highly skilled craft of creating the vehicles for a landscape that will be placed gingerly within is just the beginning. In my mind, the rigor of creating the planting vehicles strengthens the message that the interior landscape is to be taken very seriously and cared for with precision. This is my ultimate goal.

Telescopic

   Greg Lynn – Form



    One of the most provocative and exciting architects today, Greg Lynn has defined how designers and architects use computers as a medium, operating in an expanded field that fuses cutting-edge technology, contemporary art, and science fiction aesthetics with architectural form. At the epicenter of a debate about the role of digital design in architecture and design, his projects skillfully blend high technology and detailed craftsmanship, driven by modeling software from the film and aerospace industries. Included are contributions from theorists, architects, and artists, and futurists such as J. G. Ballard and Bruce Sterling. Greg Lynn Form offers a window into Lynn’s methods and techniques, theoretical positions, and career trajectory. Rather than a retrospective of Lynn’s career, it is thought-provoking and forward-looking.
