[Phenomenology] considers the body’s interaction with its environment, requiring deliber-ate attention to the process of how things are constructed. A renewed interest is created con-cerning the sensuous qualities of materials, light, color, and in the significance of the joint.

In his work, Inside Architecture, Gregotticalls for a suspension of judgments of what is already known in order to create a speculative void [thinking in the making] beyond the influences of established culture and tradition that will enable ‘new possibilities’ for the re-inventionof the ‘dwelling.’ He further refersto “the enigma of new reality…that shines by the light of its own, intimate necessity” to articulate architecture as a new reality brought about by its own necessity [shine], as a possibility of looking at realities in ways never before conceived.

[ I n v i s i b i l i t y a n d B i o n i c A r c h i t e c t u r e ]

The bionic architecture of the house retains organic and in-visible quality as it camouflages itself within the terrain. Lo-cated within the site in a gathering of fallen trees, the house re-lies on natural filtration of light. Its sustainable nature enhances man’s interaction with the environment rather than disturbing it.

establishing a presence within the city fabric, the library serves as the social seam, the axis between Charleston’s Bay Street and the waterfront. Aligned by processional axes, the structure establishes a figure/ground relationship within the context as it strives to preserve the historic nature of the city by embracing its north edge. A sense of revelation is achieved through the iconic atrium that exhibits shifting light patterns and the shifted light well acting as the central core .
