Abstract

Too often, space or void, has been considered an a priori condition. Rather than using it and it's relationship to solids to create a harmony and balance of form, void has been unconsciously disregarded as a virtual nonelement in design.

This thesis attempts to bring a tangible character to the void; to design the void as if it were a solid form. In doing so, the limiting properties of solid are broken down. Defining characteristics of solid and void are shared and boundaries are blurred.

What was once known becomes unknown.
