Mucho se ha hecho en cuanto a arquitectura con contenedores, y generalmente lo que manda es la geometría ortogonal que ordena el total. Esta casa va en una vía opuesta, renegando del orden intrínseco que su geometría demanda, para proponer una suerte de explosión en la que desde un centro parten desalineados. Sí, se pierde material, se requieren cortes y ensambles complejos, pero el resultado es… fantástico.

As @Porsche concludes its year-long 70th anniversary celebrations and looks to the future of electric propulsion, here’s a reminder of the car that started it all: the #Porsche Mission E Concept. Check out the exclusive design story on formtrends.com –> https://www.formtrends.com/design-story-porsche-mission-e-concept/
This was the motto of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, an advocate of minimalism in architecture. What is less complicated is often better understood and appreciated than what is more complicated. Simplicity is preferable to complexity, less is more

Willem de Kooning | Amityville
oil on canvas
80 by 70 in. 203.2 by 177.8 cm.
executed in 1971De Kooning’s paintings of the Seventies are an annihilation of distance. The close-ups are about closeness, a consuming closeness. These paintings are crystallizations of the experience and amazement of having body and mind dissolve into another who is all delight.
