However, neither is this space constrained by physical reality, allowing the architect a certain freedom to visualize the totality of an object and the world in which it is projected, simultaneously and in suspension: a space between memory and imagination. Memories and experiences layer richness upon this inner world and form the context for its manifestation; its realization. The deliberate and conscientious curation of this inner world-- the architect as archivist of memory and experience-- is an essential practice for the development of the architect and the worlds in which they operate.iii, 31 pagesETDapplication/pdfenIn CopyrightarchiveMemoryPhiladelphiatowercatalogueimagehouseiconLD5655.V855 2014.S658Architecture, ModernArchitectural designThesis
