Matter generates the idea: experiments in the architectural education
The educational experiments mentioned below are aimed at demonstrating how matter, technique and technology can play their role in the architectural design as main elements of inspiration and development. These elements do not constitute a feared limitation to the designer’s creative freedom, also...
