Description
There has always been an incredible tension generated by the gap between twodimensional
architectural representation and three-dimensional architectural intention.
In the abstraction of two-dimensional space, there is a certain form of reality
that exists- geometric relationships are maintained and exploited, proportions are
highlighted with extreme clarity, and edge conditions are clearly defined.
Simultaneously, this form of representation opens up new possibilities for spatial
interpretation. The projection process introduced new geometries, the possibilities
for multiple drawings shown in relationship to one another expose richer identities,
and the sometimes overlapping techniques of lineweight, shade, and shadow create
ambiguous readings of spatial depth.
Despite these 2-dimensional virtues, the three-dimensional model offers it own set
advantages primarily in its ability to convey a deeper sense of space than it's twodimensional
counterpart. But in the translation fr
