So far the 21st century – in a desperate effort to differentiate one building from the next – has been characterized by a manic production of extravagant shapes.

Paradoxically, the result is a surprisingly monotonous urban substance, where any attempt at ‘difference’ is instantly neutralized in a sea of meaningless architectural gestures.

Rem Koolhaas

This project represents a final attempt at distinction through architecture: not through the creation of the next bizarre image, but through a return to pure form.

Invented long ago, both the sphere and the bar explicitly abandon claims to formal invention or ‘originality’. (The sphere even existed before man itself…)

Yet both geometries still continue to feed the architectural imagination: perfectly autonomous shapes, within their bounds the promise of a perfect world – made possible only by the seamless integration of engineering.

Alvin Boyarski, said, “You have to start all over. You know too much. You have to forget everything you have learned.”

I liked that. In fact, I still use that as a slogan for my way of thinking. In the studio, I don’t like when we get too fixed on a particular paradigm, or we’re only following one direction. Often we rethink things and start all over with a new idea.
