Watching each sparrow is too troublesome

"Architecture, unlike a game of checkers with fixed rules and a fixed number of pieces, and much like a joke, determined by context, is the croquet game in Alice in Wonderland, where the Queen of Hearts (society, technology, economics) keeps changing the rules." (Negroponte, from Sadler, 2005, 96)

12: Refining the program

With my form under way, the interior spaces need to be further refined. Many of the original spaces in a previous diagramming exercise remain the same, just relocated to improve circulation and experiences.

I have also decided that my curved undulating form that hugs the old Chifley Hotel should be made of overlapping OLED screens - this material will provide a perfect communication tool for proposal updates, as well as create a bright and exciting addition to Brisbane's skyline, that can be changed and manipulated to suit the occasion, even turning completely transparent if necessary.
