Peter Eisenman is full of nonsense. He is a terrible influence on architecture. You wouldn't ignore history 'the reservoir of human experience' when designing art for human experience, unless you are an arrogant prat. His egotistical chat about creating purely spacial experience, has created an architecture that is actually silent. Whatever space and time mean, place and occasion mean more. please take not Eisenman

learnv: Le Cobusier's " Toward An Architecture" "...Auguste Perret's Tower-city (1922)sketched but not planned bridges link the towers to one another.(P.126)--- "for what purpose?"--- The reporter of L'Intransigeant argued. But there was no 9/11 then. Now, it is about time to look into what they thought about and did not have been examined yet.Instead of wasting the resources to build rotating towers,etc., why don't we do something wonderful to the world, save the green space....dancewu(dot)net

I think its safe to assume that the future would be the introduction of Green Buildings. As people are now more concerned about the planet's health there is more emphasis on plants and energy consumption. I look forward to seeing buildings with some kind of unique form that blends in nature with structural design.

hosweetim89: if you go to my web-site, you will see the future of the housing will be like the Great wall of China, "Great Wall Village" I called it, to be built over the million miles of existing highways with sound and fume insulation....To save green space!--- dancewu(dot)net

It's like hearing a conversation with ascended beings. Everything just falls in place.

I think that this instills a great insight into architecture.. I love seeing "intelligent" people debate with eacother.. some of these people are just arguing to argue.. and some are only declaring points with questions.. in other words :I just want to hear myself talk, and I have no idea where I am going with this".. I found this as a result of potential persuit of future in architecture.

Read "Choosing a Skyline:How intelligently are we recognizing urban context as a feature of environmental responsibility?" by Nicholas J. Slabbert -- it's available online on the "Virtual Adjacency" website. (You can also look it up in the British Library's list of online articles by N.J. Slabbert.)

JackRussellTerrier2: "help preserve open space?" Three drawings in my web-site "dancewu(dot)net" of three different ways to preserve open space. 1/ GREAT WALL VILLAGE: Triangular housing over highways and railroads to Tibet in China. 2/single loaded corridor housing flanked highways in China. 3/World Trade Center II on Hudson river outside the WTC former site with 8 sky-bridges connecting 4 towers in case of another 9/11. I hope each scheme would help to preserve open space.---dancewu(dot)net

e:What is the purpose to twist the ass of the functional supports?! In and out of a surface just cost more time, material,and labor to build!It did not add a bit to the function of that structural support! Then why did it? Wrinkled the architectural surfaces here and there just to pretend as the decoration of the past simply does not make sense to me! Without twisting the ass here and there, the building can still stand up.Adding all those "decoration"just did not make it to function any better!
