Reading the book is about fabricating your own individual response, while traveling through these small interstitial spaces provokes and individual response too. It definitely is scale related in both cases. Relating exercise one and two: Overarching idea – - – - –
It’s about a personal experience and personal interpretation. Reading the book is about fabricating your own individual response, while traveling through these small interstitial spaces provokes and individual response too. It definitely is scale related in both cases.

What do these systems imply? There is clearly a sense that one layer is wall-like and harder in nature. While the inner layer is about something else, which is perceived by the user. Scale of spaces are important too. Are they podlike? Where there is an outside wall that encloses them? Or is the outer wall represented actually the outer wall. What is happening in between the two layers? What does this imply? A. The outer layer is definetly a harder layer that becomes more about the function of the wall. It diffuses light. Period. B. The inner layer (one that is curvy) is about creating an inner layer that is solid in nature although transparent. It also is intended to create a layer of comfort. OR A. It is one layer entirely, but is perceived differently from the inside vs the outside. The outer layer is hard, the inner layer is soft. The in between layer is a layer of filtering out the distraction. This gets you from hard to soft. Now ,the issue of directed wholes in the outer wall but the inner wall remains whole. This might be too directional. Or, it could be about creating a threshold. Maybe it is just about being engrossed in your book with only some level of filtered distraction.

A. The outer layer is definetly a harder layer that becomes more about the function of the wall. It diffuses light. Period.

B. The inner layer (one that is curvy) is about creating an inner layer that is solid in nature although transparent. It also is intended to create a layer of comfort.

OR

A. It is one layer entirely, but is perceived differently from the inside vs the outside. The outer layer is hard, the inner layer is soft. The in between layer is a layer of filtering out the distraction. This gets you from hard to soft.

Now ,the issue of directed wholes in the outer wall but the inner wall remains whole. This might be too directional. Or, it could be about creating a threshold.

Maybe it is just about being engrossed in your book with only some level of filtered distraction.
