From memory to house

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

Architecture can be made from a memory, an image that has embedded itself in the mind of the maker. This image cannot, however, be invoked without commitment and investigation. For, unless its tectonic manifestation is made credible, it remains forever unreal, existing only in a subjective, referential realm, never becoming architecture.
