Well it's my first time seeing someone talk about a building on youtube in a casual way
Really enjoyed it, thanks❤
That's the best way on how to talk about buildings
Eisenman was a genius of the grids, making two systems interact with each other and see the countless results.
my latest design studio was around the Eisenman architecture. I designed a student center
*Still is. These days his grids curve, distort and pulsate. Guy really likes overlapping stuff.
Hahaha the Eisenman texts are indeed quite tough to read haha. Also 'Houses of Cards' is a nice book that goes further into the meaning and design process of these houses.
Ah, thanks for the book suggestion!
I love eisenmans work. The Wexner art center in Columbus Ohio has a similar grid superimposition that’s a little more predictable but his utilization of the old site is very refreshing and fun in my opinion. I’d love to see you dissect more of eisenmans work.
I might swing back to eisenman eventually, but for now - there are so many other cool buildings that I like :)
Such a good Topic and you always take time to surprise us with your love for learning/discovery. Thanks for sharing!
Happy to read this! :)
Questions. With this superimposition and colliding of the two grids, what was peter's intent in doing so? Simply for creativity and challenging the perception of space? Has the effect on the users ever been considered or have they been a guinea pig in this experiment of concepts?
Mmm I thing architects such as eisenmam expect that their client will be willing (and even excited) to be chalenged by the spaces in which they live. It would make them a guinea pig only if an architect would have an interest in evaluating their behaviour/emotional response after they'be began using the space (conducting an experiment). Thus I don't think " guinea pig " is fair in this case. Just people who seek extraordinary and are willing to pay for it with cerain discomfort.
House III ended up getting abandoned and then torn down pretty quickly, the house was very difficult exist inside. the grids are shifted by exactly a quarter bay in 2 directions and then the envelope of the figure is wrapped around the collumns. This creates an incredibly irregular grid inside the structure and divides space in interesting ways. Alot of the space of the second floor is actually voided and it has these very narrow walkways that extend out over the voided space. There are no doors to the bedrooms, only partitions that prevent a line of sight into them from across the house. Most of these buildings are not designed as much for inhabitation but as experiments of thought. In some published pictures of House III it is listed as a "physical model". He was enamored with the idea of the structure itself being a representation of a concept and being devoid of materiality. In most of his buildings the "structural elements" do not actually function as structural elements and rather as devices to push the design. In house VI there is an upside-down staircase because the house is the same in birds eye as it in in worms eye. most of the houses in this series exist as a record of the processes of their creation.
that photoshoot got me wondering... stuff, cool video
Great stuff, waiting for the next one!
New episode next week!

They are all essentially straitjackets. They have none of the elegant complexity of buildings by Thom Mayne or Steven Holl.
