Public space

WEEK12- DAY4



1. SOUNDTRACK OF THE DAY

2. PLACES TO KNOW

London

3. PEOPLE TO DISCOVER
Lucy Orta: www.studio-orta.com
Lucy mixes fashion and architecture. She made a really cool survival kit for the “modern nomad” (a coat that turns into a backpack and a tent).

4. QUESTION OF THE DAY


5. INSPIRATION


T.S. Eliot - “Between the idea and the reality. Between the motion and the act. Falls the shadow.”

Design is a balancing act. Between what you know and what allows yourself to discover.

6. HOMEWORK
Bring your tent outside. During the day.
You can chose whether you go to a park, or into the woods.
Ideally, the space you choose should be a public one.
Let the elements rage, you will be safe, in your own refuge.
But, sometimes, the unexpected, the unplanned happens. A gust
of wind opens a seam, the rain leaks in and all is ruined...


Not so good to go outside.
This nest should hang from a tree. But I can use it in the balcony.
