urban living spaces
Constellations, as we know them, were born out of the human
eye’s need to arrange space into knowable shapes. The astronomer
Carl Sagan famously said, “If constellations had been named in the 20th
century, I suppose we would see bicycles.” The way we reinvent our
contemporary living spaces is up to us. Our imagination has the power
of harnessing stars, building a finite system out of infinite chaos of the
universe: so is this self-contained environment engineered to encompass
several others, revolving around one another like satellites of a complex
planetary system. Imagine a living room laid out as the dotted spine
of the Milky Way, and an intimate bathroom, coppery and mercurial like
a small secret planet: what else could exist in the space in between, what
wonderful new landscapes? What spatial conversations happen among
objects, as they discuss gravity and the many, diverse relationships that
a body can have with another?
