RE: Domestic Space as “Figures, Doors, and Passages” by Robin Evans

[critday]

Hi @twotoedsloth, I've finally had the chance to read this in its entirety, thank you for sharing it.

It is really in depth and covers a wide topic of domestic architecture. I like the analogy of doorways and how they can be seen as nodes, with reference to blockchain technology. I wonder what your thoughts would be on open plan living. Could that be considered as decentralisation in the purest form?

Also, you mention Constructivists, by this are you referring to the 1930s art and architecture movement which was seen in Soviet Russia. If so there is potentially an interesting comparison between communist Russia and NK.

Thank you @critday for reading it through! I am slowly dividing the relation of blockchain technology into two different kinds of considerations:

1. The way blockchain can propagate finance, and
2. How the distributed system can influence the creation of architectural spaces.

I feel that open plan living gives people the opportunity for a very efficient living with a sense of an open community, but interweaving that public vs. private space I feel is even more so important when considering the functions within the open plan space.

Two interesting areas to research. I'm eager to see what you find.
