| Synopsis: |
As a complex organization, an interesting building has always an interesting epic, a story that is embedded in the organization of matter. It is this epic of making a building that is described in this book, the first in the series of "Verb Monographs", as a small homage to all those who were involved in the project. The book is structured as a replica of the way in which the building was developed by the team, with every member taking over a full design package. This editorial structure has two fundamental intentions. First, to depict the design development process as the growth of ideas from rather specific material domains. Second, to rediscover the linearity of the construction documents' ordering system. As an experiment, the editors have decided not to include critical texts, no theorization on the work - just an attempt to describe the set of decisions that made matter evolve into a building. |
