Lecture Synopsis
We look at the flows of elements in our life environment such as wind, light, sound, and people’s activities. They are taken as “Small Arrows” in our design process and re-organized to create a space for people and their diverse and lively activities. This lecture introduces our current projects and the design thinking behind them which is believed to replace the “Universal Space” by Mies van der Rohe.
