Architectural positions 

p.?

There is a difference between architects and artists

“We consider that the architect in every profession are more estimable and know more and are wiser than the artisans, because they know the reasons of the things which are done.”

p.?

Analogue vs. digital

“The digitalization creates a distance to both site, material and scale, which leaves us with poor and amputated results.”

p.31

Good architecture is created by cross-disciplinary collaboration and relationships that promotes ingenuity and equal gain. Be it inhabitant, architect or constructor.

“When Deming spoke of “collective craftsmanship,” he meant that the glue binding an institution is created by sharp mutual exchange as much as by shared commitment.”

Architectural concept

…Concept Development…

Good experiences/interactions between architecture and the viewer; can be communicated, through the craft creating the architecture. It can become a mutual exchange between what you see and how you feel/experience the architecture.

What you see is what you get, if craft is the architecture and architecture is craft, the two things have a shared commitment.

Kalø ruin is a tower of bricks, and dose what brick dose the most, stay in a static stack.

The experience of tower is two different structures sharing a common structural language.

To archive the full experience of the very architectural grasp, the architecture should not contradict the way is it built; if you can read how the building is composed you will reach a better understanding of the architecture within the building.

The old structure and bricks will together with the new structure and new bricks create a third structure. A solitaire building with its own expression but shared structure.

When people engaging in architecture it should be the most uninterrupted and pure experience - which is able to archive through good craftsmanship.

What you see is what you get, if craft is the architecture and architecture is craft, the two things have a shared commitment.

Architecture is communicated through craft and craft is communicated through architecture.
