The cube separated from the outside by six square faces . It have the limitation. Based on the limitation, I insert the unlimitation by the movement . 8
Arrows shown in yellow colour are the directions of movement They break the perfect cube, break all covers and boundaries ...
The movements have not finished ... As it always have new beginnings when others ends . So the form is NOT LIMITED by everything, it could be pervasive and continued without the end point. 9

UnlimiteD ISARCH Competition 5th edition . Special Mention Individual Competition Project , 2015
Architecture is a material structure with different levels of concentration, enabling to help people to access directly to the nature (which includes people and surrounding things) with a reduction of friction. The more concentrative and condensed the platform is, the more stable the construction is. The emptiness always makes it tottering. When it is concentrative, it is more likely to disappear, and the stableness also brings a division. But the more it keeps in pace, the more the concentration is minimized, nearly equal to zero. That is air, a direct getting contact, without condition and friction.
