| Around our contemporary environmental questions at least one thing became clear to me and that’s that out of fear, or to build on top of our guilt, we can’t create anything. So instead I rather like to slide the heavy burden of my shoulders and choose the quality of lightness. | Around our contemporary environmental questions at least one thing became clear to me and that’s that out of fear, or to build on top of our guilt, we can’t create anything.

| And in wondering if we can construct our worlds from the lightest quality surrounding us everywhere: –air- inflatable architecture comes the closests. Its thin flexible membrane, acts as a space-defining skin is able to give shape of –air- itself allowing it to be a breathing unity with its own integrity. Its close related to its surrounding its specifically bodily and tactile by nature and its portable, mobile, and playful. | And in wondering if we can construct our worlds from the lightest quality surrounding us everywhere: –air- inflatable architecture comes the closests.

| - A collection of innovative inflatable experts, labs etc. I have listed them at [[Inflatable Structures]] a page already existing at Foams libarynth. Most of them I came across during making the -Alive Inflatable- visual survey and for the rest I collected them from my own archieve, the most interesed ones I asked to send brochures so to put in Foam Library. | - A collection of innovative inflatable experts, labs etc. I have listed them at [[Inflatable Structures]] a page already existing at Foams libarynth.
