Abstract
"The immeasurable is the one thing that captivates the mind: the measurable makes very little difference.”
Kahn
Transition could be thought of as the only constant—life being in itself a transition, composed of a myriad of inseparable transitions—a continuum of events "taking place." This work imagistically explores the evocative nature of transition place as it is manifested in architecture, art, and poetry, and prepares an architectural place for the transitions of life.
