| * The thirth principle was modularity. One can always ask yourself how does it feel, to have a modular surrounding. Nature is never modular. Nature is full of almost similar units (waves, raindrops, blades of grass-) but though the units of one kind are all alike in their broad structure, no two are ever alike in detail. - the same broad features keep recurring over and over again. - in their detail appearance these broad features are never twice the same. - The quality of places is never twice the same, because it always takes its shape from the particular place in which it occurs. Each part is slightly different, according to its position in the whole. Each branch of a tree has a slightly different shape, according to its position in the tree. Each leaf on the branch is given its detailed form by its position on the branch. So an alternative is to think of differentiating spaces: It is not a process of addition, in which pre-formed parts are combined to create a whole: but a process of unfolding, like the evolution of an embryo, in which the whole precedes in parts, and actually gives birth to them, by splitting (so becoming different in the process of growth or development).

| - | - The Visual Collection of -Alive Inflatables- | ||
| - | In looking for structures for inflatables as a visual survey; I became very tired quickly. Maybe because I came across a lot of dead stuff. So I decided to look intuitively for inflatables I just liked. And then after looking at them I found out what the quality of these inflatables was and that was that they were alive in one way or another. In such a way that it are inflatable spaces you want to be emerged with, play with, be involved with. And some of these inflatables are to simple to be true, but have an amazing opening effect on people. After having an inspiring collection, all kinds of different structures unfold by themselves, and it was out of curiousity I was eager to give explanations by all the pictures. | ||
