As a non-course 4, er, architect,
I'd also like to add that
respond to physical context
should also take into account such things as the native species inhabiting
the area.
For example,
Many architects must have been pigeons in former lives, because their
designs seem to incorporate the plans to some archetypal pigeon coop,
and place their concept of a coop over the major ingress/egress routes
of their buildings.
I know of several building which ended up with various types
of retrofitting to keep these flying rats from flocking. Seems just
dumb to put up a structure thinking it will be somehow
magically placed in a sterile environment.
By the way,
I'm looking for any works designed by Susane Havelka. Anyone out there
familiar with her stuff?
