Response: How To Draw Up A Project

In Jose Luis Mateo's article, architecture takes on a variety of elements, frameworks, and forms that apply to physical objects as well as to conceptual references of space that encapsulate those bodies, so-called phantom functions that adopt subsequent specialized modifications. By gauging the physical potentialities of material functions, analogies such as service networks or layers of skin membranes to model architectural action stress the importance of conceptualizing space in a rudimentary structure that is still subject to natural laws. Such a perspective lends a considerable utility in the attempt to modulate energy flows and movements between given groups of these building blocks, be they even of subatomically elementary or cosmically massive scales.

A common analogy in architectural design is the use of biological organisms to model behavior of systems comprised by living things, such as trees, in the development of sequential production decisions. I'm interested in the so-called natural selection process that are undergone in simulation by the architect or designer in consideration of these social systems and traditions over time, and the selection of a certain model as being a welcome replacement or representing a valid approximation of a real-life scenario. Surely the question of architecture engenders a cornucopia of problems and our anticipation of their impact in scope is going to push the theoretical heights of computation in the coming years. The number of miscalculations that can occur is astounding, and keeping estimated accounts or designs in an open fashion makes sure that those anomalies can be anticipated and accomodated for. The unpredictable aspects of human societies seem to be most indicative of the quality of life, winding in its way.
