Form and Function

Expression of Truth and Beauty

This project is geared towards the method and process of idea generation through conceptual combinations. By focusing on examining and exploring the relationship that exists between form and function in architectural design, we were able to create something new by transforming a previous idea. The overall result showcases how architecturally a project can posses both truthfulness in its beauty while also being able to function.
