TRANSPARENCY, LAYERING AND MOVEMENT:
- extensive use of translucent
and transparent glass. - a layering of ducts, stairs and structure and
the accumulation of moving escalators and elevators (mechanisms of see-through
escalators). - inmost breaks up the structural mess into a filigree of
densely layered elements. The repetition of blue trusses, green ducts,
red doors, grey structure make the space shimmer and dance witha staccatobeat
close to Jazz.
"I believe in the rich potential
of modern industrialist society. Aesthetically one can do what one likes
with technology for it is a tool, not an end in itself, but we ignore
it at our peril.".(R. Rogers)
