When love feels like magic, you call it destiny. When destiny has a sense of humor, you call it serendipity.
The initial collage allows for an open-ended and spontaneous improvisation of the combination of the object. After several iterations, I decide on one of the collages that I think having potential for develop as a sectional space. The sectional study test how light, shadow, refraction, and reflection affect spatial perception. The final model plays with material and color to express the heavy versus the light, the solid versus the permeable, the smooth versus the bumpy.

Security seeks to close a city down. Porosity seeks to open it up. Somewhere between the two a solution must be found within our capitalist system. If we can’t find the balance, they’ll close the cities and cities will die.
--Richard Goodwin
Through the analysis of critical surfaces in which a series of daily rituals transpire, the rituals of sanitation, rest, and nourishment have been identified as the essential in order ‘to dwell’. A space without sensibility to the former elements cannot be considered a dwelling.
As spaces are configured through a process favoring functionality, spatial economy, and connectivity between the aforementioned rituals, an overarching condition of negotiation occurs as one surface experiences a push force from within, and the adjacent surface experiences a subtractive pull. Whether it be the transition from interior space to an exterior enclosure, or transitioning between interior spaces—a certain memory, or porosity of the adjoining element becomes evident within the scheme.
A fluid connectivity is produced through the insertion of bedroom volumes into the living space, both completing the dwelling and adjoining the dwelling to the next as a collective aggregation.
