UNIT BRIEF
1. Patterns exist everywhere, and have existed since the big bang.
Patterns are graphic representation of coded information. From the
Neolithic symbolism to twitter mood swings. Spatial patterns are on the
drawing tables of all global design studios. The seduction for patterns is
driven by two essential reasons - first, the mystery of its aesthetic and
second, the rule(s) of generation.
Life revolves around the production of patterns. A simple tracking device
to map your daily movements can produce a personal and intriguing
diagram of your hometown. The subset of this movement also leaves
behind intricate diagrams, from the sediments on the morning coffee cup
to soap bubbles on the shower floor to potent wi-fi connectivity, pattern
dictate life processes.
The studio aims to map and formulate such patterns that envelope us. We
attempt to tackle spatiality by visiting the root of design, both intuitively
and objectively.
2. Performance criterions enable us to judge the creations. Broadly, It is
a measuring device to test the potential of the products. The definition is
extremely loose, as are the different categories under which a building,
installation, objects can be tested. However, Performance variables
are critical factors that enable us to create with balanced intangible
aspects (social, cultural, aesthetic, cognitive) and the measurable aspects
(economic, structure, heat, material constraints etc).
Every design move shall be tested for its performance. There are always
alternatives. Performance criterions would enable us to generate a
repertoire, a gene pool that provides a family with similar but not identical
traits.
3. With the use of models (physical, digital, mental, philosophical,
metaphorical), the unit aims to design and develop environments that
are bottom-up. There is no determined Program for most period of the
studio. The program is deciphered by the rules of engagement.
