About Me
- Emily
- New York, NY, United States
- desire for illumination. A phrase that I read in a book on building skins - on curtain wall, the current focus of my professional endeavor. Curtain wall, by definition, is a non-load bearing wall that encloses space; hanging from the structure rather than providing structural support. Versions of the current have been seen through the history of Architecture. This journal will serve as an avenue for exploration in the evolution of enclosures; the transition between inside and outside; from the first wall, or rather - fence, to today's smart walls: responsive skins that serve to meet increasingly high technical requirements. I will also explore the evolution of mankind and our built structures; from a 'true love of the dark, the mystic' to a 'desire for illumination.'
