Building Review
Iwan Baan
Vakko Fashion Center and Power Media Center, Istanbul, Turkey - In Istanbul, prisms of glass and mirrors form a kaleidoscopic geometry that reflects people’s movements with a distortion of gravity. Human activity is thus transformed into representation.
Does experience create spatiality? Is it possible to separate space from its representation in order to experience a real confrontation of it? Building practice commonly seeks above all to sustain the infrastructure and purposes of functionalism. On the other hand, however, design always searches for the creative potential linked to the interaction between humans and space. A kind of “relationality” based on an experience of the subjectivity of space could be the basic building block.
