Post Studio Practices, Daniel Buren.
Rem Koolhaas
A space is something
that has been made room for . . . A boundary is not that at which
something stops, but as the Greeks recognized, the boundary is that
which something begins its presencing. That is why the concept is
that of horizons, that is, the horizon, the boundary. Space is in
essence that which room has been made, that which let into its
bounds. That for which room is made is . . . joined, that is,
gathered, by virtue of a location, that is by such a thing as a
bridge.
Martin Heidegger.

laboratory built on the threshold of diverse and interpretive and creative perimeters, binding architecture to the cinematic/everyday drama of statis and movement in the sensing of space.
