Logic Quest for Beauty
Trienal de Arquitectura de Lisboa
In 2019, we were invited to participate in the "Trienal de Arquitectura de Lisboa," where we designed and led a one-week workshop connected to the exhibition "The Poetics of Reason."
A collection of objects, fragments, pieces, form a library of possibilities, an atlas. We work with these elements as tools to face a series of challenges. The workshop proposed solving three-dimensional puzzles in which the important thing is not the accumulation of these elements but their order, their structure, their logic. Challenges that arouse curiosity, reveal rational systems and give rise to forms based on formulas.
By manipulating strings, linking elements, building geometries, we generate rational, logical and beautiful systems. The result: dissolving domes, elements in unstable equilibrium, levitating objects, etc.
