-  ***Christopher Alexander's pattern language** +  ***Christopher Alexander's pattern language**  Chistopher Alexander has unraveled in 1977 a pattern language to create 'living architecture’. Its a tool for anyone willing to surpass the general problem domains in our contemporary architecture as stated above, which often leaves us with a feeling of being alienated and detachment. This pattern language is based on the actions which takes place in space and time which makes one feel “alive”. I like to  summarize his patterns which can be used by anyone interested in building stuff.

-- 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 out of curiousity I was eager to give explanations by all the pictures. I gave the visual survey the name - Alive Inflatables- for them I searched in books, the internet, my own picture archive, and I asked collegues and experts.+- In looking for structures for inflatables as a visual survey; I became very tired quickly.

 - I wrote two books of Christopher Alexander: The timeless way of building and Pattern language. First I made a long summary and later I summarized it to the size that I tink general people are still willing to read this and they can using it as a tool. - I wrote two books of Christopher Alexander: The timeless way of building and Pattern language.

 - 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.
