Mind Takes Form In The City

“The city is a fact in nature, like a cave, a run of mackerel or an ant-heap. But it is also a conscious work of art, and it holds within its communal framework many simpler and more personal forms of art. Mind takes form in the city; and in turn, urban forms condition mind.” - Lewis Mumford

Modern Moorish Style Open Air Apt.

urban/open air apt. - architecture doodle

this is what i've been working on tonight - starting to get back into the architecture groove now, kind of lost that recently in my sketchings. kind of an open-air condo/apt. with a courtyard/porch/balcony configuration around the living area. it's got a modern moorish feel to it, with a tiled dado at the bottom and most likely some sort of rooftop access. the whole idea of the open air suspended living space was taken from islamic architecture's incorporation of rooftop living spaces and chhatris.
