World view of architecture


After reflecting on the three projects presented, a common thread can be seen which reflects my personal view of architecture. Paddington Reservoir, Spanish Step and The Farnsworth House have strong connections with the environment and their surroundings. Not only can they be viewed as architectural elements but as sculptural artworks within the landscape. The three projects all have a sculptural element, the way people come to view them, walk through the spaces, stop and sit on the steps, touch and interact with the artworks. Not only connections with the environment they then create very personal connections/ memories with the viewer.
