Density | Identity Studio

Density | Identity Studio Design Studio We will use a concept of Identity, along with a concept of Density, to locate the singularity of being that is the designer.

During the course of the time we work through ‘making’ exercises, abstract and literal, in an attempt to ascertain a semblance of meaning through making. We will begin to locate design (?) through an understanding of SOMETHING. By looking at SOMETHING, we will begin to investigate that which is ‘place.’

Continuation of fundamental architectural design exploration. Studio projects focus on the g

eneration of ideas based on experience and an understanding of SURFACES. Emphasis on systematic analysis of culture, scale, materiality, and networks. Students work in groups and individually. Representational methods expand on architectural conventions through experimentation. Fieldtrips to relevant architectural sites.

SURFACE | theory

The basic principle of SURFACE THEORY posits that the design of things (potential objects derived from thoughtful processes) come into being from an understanding or knowledge of ESSENCES. Then what herein does ESSENCE mean? An essence is an identified FORM. Forms surface from properties composed or assembled into recognizable things (potential objects). Things exist as objects from which potential experiences are expressions of thoughtful minds via ideal reification.

Divergent from existential thought that posits "existence precedes essence" surface theory supposes "essence precedes existence". Essences within the realm of design are manifest as a parcel of the designing subject that existence prior to objects generated.

Surface theory is an epistemological exploration (knowledge) focused on ontological ( essence ) ideas of designed forms. The exploration of forms seeks to reveal the nature of things as a methodological resolution revealing the essential characteristics in-form. The forms designed will duly produce only that which can exist from the primary subject.

Theory — essence | properties | forms | things (objects)

SURFACEstudio is a forum that encourages exploration of the self. SURFACEstudio seeks to foster growth of the individual in order to facilitate collective exchange. Said process seeks to determine the limits of the individual in order that the collective may shift predetermined notions beyond that which is ephemeral. Knowledge is not given but assumed to be merely an awareness of things bound to unknowns. We exchange moments at the table in order that thoughts become patterns in form…

what are forms?
