The thesis is about exploring the discipline of architecture through an unproductive, hedonistic lens, about shaping spaces such that interacting with it is instinctive, primal and not predefined. It is about letting one\u2019s body move and interact with its surroundings intuitively. The thesis is about provocation, inducing a certain type of play and imagination both through materialistic exploration and spatial movement. The thesis asks questions about pleasure, desire, seduction, senses, imagination, and curiosity in the discipline of architecture. The thesis is also about gently nudging architecture off its pedestal and taking it a bit less seriously by playing, toying, and experimenting with reality and fantasy.<\/span><\/p>\r\nFollies<\/b><\/p>\r\n
A total of 21 follies are manifested as my architectural consequence. They were moulded through an intuitive and exploratory process with emphasis on materiality, atmosphere, and the way they provoke movement and curiosity. It aims to defend public spaces and work quietly with it to empower the public.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\nThe layer of the object is the physical form, the clay, the layout. The layer of event being the moment when one interact with the follies, and most importantly, the layer of fantasy is the appropriation and the creative process when one impose their imagination upon the follies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\u201cGood architecture must be conceived, erected, and burned in vain. The greatest architecture of all is the fireworks; it perfectly shows the gratuitous consumption of pleasure\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\u00a0\u2013\u00a0 Bernard Tschumi\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\nConclusion<\/b><\/p>\r\n
Ultimately, the thesis has through various means of research and development to visualise, probe, invite imagination and eventually manifest these concepts in space. The thesis is driven by a personal fascination - one that is eager to engage architecture in an intimate and provocative way. In its process realising the inexplicability of architecture, where objectivity meets divine, reason meets madness and <\/span>reality meets fantasy.<\/span><\/i><\/p>","grid_spacer":"0","grid_spacer_topbottom":"0","grid_spacer_width":"200","grid_spacer_height":"50","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/mural-07-w-tetxure_LR-scaled.jpg","uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/mural-07-w-tetxure_LR-scaled.jpg",2560,1192,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/mural-07-w-tetxure_LR-400x186.jpg",400,186,true],"medium":["https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/mural-07-w-tetxure_LR-1024x477.jpg",1024,477,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/mural-07-w-tetxure_LR-768x358.jpg",640,298,true],"large":["https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/mural-07-w-tetxure_LR-1920x894.jpg",640,298,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/mural-07-w-tetxure_LR-1536x715.jpg",1536,715,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/mural-07-w-tetxure_LR-2048x954.jpg",2048,954,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Nus MArch Gradshow","author_link":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/author\/nus-march-gradshow\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"[...]Read More...","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/585"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=585"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/585\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4276,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/585\/revisions\/4276"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2420"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=585"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=585"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=585"},{"taxonomy":"supervisor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/supervisor?post=585"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
