This week’s brief is to build a structure following a system we used last year in Berlin to set-up our #blaueblumen exhibition.

In Berlin, our structure was floating (hanging from the ceiling). This time, it should be placed on the floor You have to work “inside” (ideally in an empty room, but this is up to you).

• TUESDAY : QUALITY IS NOT

WORK 72/101

A digital conceptual model of your spatial structure in the space you chose.

The three dimensional structure placed in your space will generate an architectural concept.

• WEDNESDAY : VALID FOR EVERYBODY WORK 73/101

Now, try to understand how we worked in Berlin.

How the structure was set up. The joints. The relevance of the strings inside the newspaper bones. Make sure you have all the materials and tools to get your structure working and looking fine. Newspapers, tape, strings, scissors.

Nothing less, nothing more.

• THURSDAY : THINK SIMPLE AS

WORK 74/101

The making of (document how you set-up your thing)

FRIDAY : RARELY HAS

WORK 75/101

Watch out because our little structure seems like something easy to make, but it is not!

Find some time and plan it right.All of this is a tricky business!

To deal with something difficult thinking it was easy is quite a common situation in architecture.

And in life as well.

Learning to deal with this kind of situation can be extremely useful.

The making-of is part of the final result.

Be aware of this and use it as a communication tool to enhance your messages and meanings.

Apps used in this task: Sumo Paint, PIXRL Editor.
