Architects:

SANAA

&

Lebbeus Woods

architectural concepts of SANAA:

1. weightlessness - an arrangement of forms that displays balance and harmony.

2. simplicity / minimalistic ideals of clarity & purity through simplicity.

3. flexibility / fluidity of spaces. circulation, interactions.

4. 4D - experimental quality greater than the form itself

5. pure geometric forms. true, regular, white. the void as a method of visual connectivity between volumes.



architectural concepts of Lebbeus Woods:

1. deconstructionism through complexity.

2. architecture that disregards the ground plane. terrestrial reference. defy gravity.

3. mechanical movement, buildings that rotate, that inhibit, that occupy.

4. apocalyptic architecture - response to war torn building fabric, restoration, demolition or integration.

5. architecture formed via political or social conflict
