EXP 3 - Mashup

ARTICLE MASHUP 

A pattern is a set of relationships, which can be realized using different materials and geometries.

Living architecture is highly dependent on patterns, which shape buildings and spaces accordingly. Balance is achieved by an overall coherence and lack of clutter. Symmetries are all cooperating to support each other, with nothing extraneous or distracting. One of the basic tenets of sustainability is that you do not consume more than can be replaced. We see this simplicity in nature, though it is never actually “simple” in the sense of being minimalist. There is an understanding that – alongside ever improving connections to external information resources – encouraging communication and knowledge sharing within individual companies increases the potential for more creative and experimental approaches to work. 

Simplicity and inner calm. This is a more subtle quality. They are fully embracing changes which promote and stimulate creative work processes through communication, experimentation and new forms of collaboration.
