Equally (Un)Equal
EQUALLY (UN)EQUAL II Rejwana Rahman
Exploration of words through architectural chunks. How architecture can arouses different types of emotions through formal independence. Indifference: Indifference architecture where the architecture is intangible, free from any bindings or guides. Where its independent, following or neglecting references from others. Where it does not have a character but following a generic rule. Where the architecture operates just based on aesthetics, opposing realism or context. Parti diagram
Estrangement: where several objects composed in a way which represents something completely different than the original experience. Producing a new set of aesthetics for the architectural object. Creating tension in realism, to create unfamiliarity, in regular objects or scenario. The experience not limited to positive or negative, but simply dissimilar. Ambivalence: Somewhere in between Taking the decision of being ‘indecisive’. It does not defined geometry, It is irregular, & contextually indifference. No defined geometry, irregular, contextual indifference, elevational ambivalence (same as indifference but soft geometry).
