The spirit receives from materials the perceptions
by which it is nourished, and returns them in the
form of movement, with the imprint of its freedom.
Henry Bergson

Sometimes the house of the future is better built, lighter and larger than
all houses of the past, so that the image of the dream house is opposed
to that of the childhood home. Later in life, with indomitable courage,
we continue to say that we are going to do what we have not yet done:
we are going to build a house.

Gaston Bachelard - The Poetics of Space


Fermez l’espace!
Fermez la poche du Kangourou!
Il y fait chaud.

Close space!
Close the kangaroo’s pouch!
It’s warm in there.

Un espace sans fonction. Non pas "sans fonction précise", mais précisément
sans fonction ; non pas pluri-fonctionnel (cela, tout le monde sait le faire), mais
a-fonctionnel. Ça n'aurait évidemment pas été un espace uniquement destiné á
"libérer" les autres (fourre-tout, lacard, penderie, rangement, etc.) mais un
espace, je le répète, qui n'aurait servi à rien.

Comment penser le rien ? Comment penser le rien sans automatiquement mettre
quelque chose autour de ce rien, ce qui en fait un trou, dans lequel on va
s'empresser de mettre quelque chose, une pratique, une fonction, un destin, un
regard, un besoin, un manque, un surplus ?


ambacht

“Architektur ist etwas Haptisches, etwas zum Anfassen.
Die Materialien in der Architektur sind wie die Töne für den Komponisten.
Mit den Materialien arbeite ich, ich habe alle gern. Das Interessante ist,
die Töne immer wieder neu zusammenzusetzen und einen spezifischen Klang zu erzeugen.”

Peter Zumthor
(1943)

Made of Materials
To me, there is something revealing about the work of Joseph Beuys and some of the
artists of the Arte Povera group. What impresses me is the precise and sensuous way
they use materials. It seems anchored in an ancient, elemental knowledge about man’s
use of materials, and at the same time to expose the very essence of these materials
which is beyond all culturally conveyed meaning.
I try to use materials like this in my work. I believe that they can assume a poetic
quality in the context of an architectural object, although only if the architect is able to
generate a meaningful situation for them, since materials in themselves are not poetic.
The sense that I try to instill into materials is beyond all rules of composition and their
tangibility, smell and acoustic qualities are merely elements of the language that we
are obliged to use. Sense emerges when I succeed in bringing out the specific meanings
of materials in my buildings, meanings which can only be perceived in just this way in
this one building.
If we work towards this goal, we must constantly ask ourselves what the use of a
particular material could mean in a specific architectural context. Good answers to
these questions can throw new light onto both the way in which the material is
generally used and its own inherent sensuous qualities.
If we succeed in this, materials in architecture can be made to shine and vibrate.

better is learning how nature organizes, and in the same way
we can organize our buildings and our cities.”
