Zumthor talks of the importance of “the sound of the space, to the way materials and surfaces respond to touching and tapping, and to the silence that is a prerequisite of hearing”

"Thinking about daylight and artificial light I have to admit that daylight, the light on things, is so moving to me that I feel it almost as a spiritual quality. When the sun comes up in the morning -- which I always find so marvelous, absolutely fantastic the way it comes back every morning -- and casts its light on things, it doesn't feel as if it quite belongs in this world. I don't understand light. It gives me the feeling there's something beyond me, something beyond all understanding. And I am very glad, very grateful that there is such a thing And I have that feeling here too; I'll

thing. And I have that feeling here too; I ll have it later when we go outside. For an architect that light is a thousand times better than artificial light."

The church becomes an earthly analogue to heaven. Its aim is not so much to create space as to create the feeling of still greater space. Everything is mysterious and half-hidden, yet everything is revealed; the church in its contemporary contradictions between mystery and clarity, space and mass.The church as a model for the new relationships between man, God, and nature at the end of the millennium.

ARCHITECTURE 2201 CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT

“I believe that architecture is not reducible to any particular climate of opinion. No abstract theory, game of forms, application of technology or pragmatics is sufficient to communicate the fact that architecture is a movement beyond the material. It is length, height and width, but also the depth of aspiration and memory. The living source of architecture is the very substance of the soul and constitutes the structure of culture itself “Daniel Libeskind, German Architecture Prize Speech, 1989

“The Kunsthaus is not about high tech expressionism. For this we had neither the budget nor the inclination. The technological mutation of which this building is a symptom is a deeper one, which lies at the radical change of the design process itself and its new connection with automated manufacturing processes. A non-euclidean object such as p jthis cannot be designed and represented by means of conventional plans, sections and elevations; it’s only meaningful manifestation is a set of 3D data in a computer software package, later to be directly linked, at the production stage, to cad-cam manufacturing tools. It is in this fundamental shift towards 3D modeling, not as a representational tool but as the only legitimate conceptual milieu for contemporary design that true

contemporary design, that true technological revolution lies, leaving us, at times, feeling like dinosaurs on the eve of major climatic change. This is just the beginning of the surprises that await us in the 21st century: architecture will never be the same again, and this building is at the transition point.”

Where everything is done at the same time to protect it from light and to capture that rare ray of sunshine that is indispensable for resonance, for the installation of spirituality”the installation of spirituality

“It is a unique and strange place. Poetic and Disturbing”

When dematerialization meets the expression of the signs it becomes selective. Here, illusion cradles the work of art.

It remains to invent the poetry of the situation: the transition is smooth: the Parisian garden becomes a sacred wood and the museum dissolves in its depths”

“The library building is perhaps the closest we have come to a direct realization of the Climatroffice concept, which gave us a clearer focus on so many crucial issues: flexibility of use, in the form of multi-function spaces; energy saving; lightweight envelopes; and the use of natural light and ventilation. All of these concerns are encapsulated in the library.”

Flight 93 MemorialA SLOW DESCENT: a journey of memory and hopeUnlike the tragedy on September 11th, 2001, where flight 93 came crashing down, the memorial is a slow descent towards remembrance. A visitor to this sacred site traces the path of the plane, slowly descending below, becoming alone, mourning, and remembering. Once below the spaces become sequential, each experience building on the next. A linear

l i it i ti t t k th ti f th f fli htplace, a visitor experiences emotions meant to evoke the emotions of the passengers of flight 93. Confusion sets in, the space is uncomfortable, a confrontation, a battle of wills. The visitor understands they are entering a place that may not be comfortable, but is a necessity. Continuing on there is recognition of the individual. This is a quiet place. Like the British cemeteries of Normandy, families are asked to participate, giving their words. Some quotes question, some may be bitter; others just want to remember their loved ones. “We miss you child” The names are organized as they were on the plane, orderly rows of passengers, each beginning a journey. Again the space changes, the tragedy stops here – “let’s roll”. The path slowly rises. There is hope. Heroes emerge. We have already mourned, and now there is a new beginning The memorial is also celebration of good deeds done Lives were lost /

is a new beginning. The memorial is also celebration of good deeds done. Lives were lost / lives were saved that day, how many, we may never know. The rising path is symbolic of freedom and hope. All was not lost that day. As the visitor rises the experience becomes complete. The path of the plane is revealed, the path of emotions is complete, and a look towards the future is all that remains. The memorial is a flight that is ongoing.
