Junkspace represents a reverse typology of cumulative, approximative identity, less about kind than about quantity. But formlessness is still form, the formless also a typology…Take the dump, where successive trucks discharge their loads to form a heap, whole in spite of the randomness of this contents and its fundamental shapelessness, or that of the tent-envelope that assumes different shapes to accommodate variable interior volume.

The first chapter of Rem Koolhaas's Mutations  book (published by ACTAR in 2001) is a manual for building your own Roman city (thank you Ewa M. for pointing it out to me!). The chapter discusses the way Roman cities were planned and created in a DIY style of writing which tempts you to go out there, buy a plot of land, and actually try it out! 

The birth of the Roman cities were all the same: using the axial cross - called the cardo  and ducumanus - to align themselves to the heavens above, then generating a grid, and finally placing the buildings. In a way, this planned view of city building is very simple and strict, however the romans knew that rules where meant to be broken, and that the basic form of the city had to co-exist with the specific conditions each individual city presented. The argument is that Roman cities were "100% generic" - thus having common principles making them all the same - but equally, they were"100% specific" as they each reacted and adapted to local environmental, typographical, site specific situations as well as diverse cultures which spread across the empire. This makes the Roman city a successful tool...

If an architecture is a product consumption it need to be a recyclabe product. Get the ability to evolve. Get speed flow. Give an answer for today.

Deconstruction is a particular artistic movement in architecture, which found its name from that of the literary movement of deconstruction which was the theorist and figurehead Jacques Derrida . his name also refers to the movement of Russian Constructivism 1920 he incorporated some formal inspirations.

In particular, it is to discover the articulation binary concepts that metaphysical claims distinguish in their purity:

• Presence / absence;
  
  
• Phenomenon / gasoline intelligible / sensible, reality / appearance;
  
  
• Speech / writing, nature / culture, artifice / authenticity male / female …

Peter Eisenman ,who works with Jacques Derrida, made four projects (Cannaregio, Berlin, Long Beach et La Villette) where he set up  deconstruction process 

The Scaling 

It's a result of the superposition of scaling, rotation and fragmentation applied to a map. The new figure can not be read in reverse to find the origin. This is directly addressed perceived as a linear sequence with its beginnings and for history. This complexity of the deciphering

makes aware of the multitude interpretations of the readings of the past and their subjectivity, even encouraged by their arbitrary ideology.

The excavation

Firstly, it enables the building to hang a real or fictitious site. Also, digging can question the extrusion operation, because it can be presented as the inverse operation.

When you see my area you can think about work  with the P. Eisenman'sprocess. We got also differents scales : car/people route/highway. This several ways give the possibility to find the shape with the best efficiency.

     The site selected for the 1960 Olympics was a strategic location along the ancient Via Flaminia. This area along the flood plain of the Tiber had long been used as a site for sporting events. Previously it had been the Piazza d´Armi for horse events and there was a hippodrome. Is was also easy accessible to Foro Italico across the river to the west where facilities built in the 1930's already existed including a stadium. Planned Olympic facilities included 2 stadiums and housing for the athletes. One stadium was to be used for football, the Stadio Flaminio, 1959, and the other for indoor sports, the Palazzetto dello Sport, 1958. Designed by Pier Luigi Nervi. The apartments were to be used after the games as dwellings for 6500 people. The Olympic Village was a showcase project for Rome in the years following World War II. In addition to the 2 stadiums and 1500 or so dwellings, the Olympic Village is a more-or-less complete community including shopping, schools, and a church.

      After the olympic games, the village became social housing. The lack of stores miss a lot to the district. The publics space there aren't hearty. This emptiness don't give the possibility of the district to live during the day. Secondly this emptiness kill the meeting place that give colors at the olympic village. Without this the village can be a point of social life in rome during the day. This area need a second breathing. I think, for me, it's one of the objectives of Urban Void.
