‘Not all spaces are created by us, part of space is made by itself.’

-If you were to die and return as a form which would it be?!
-What if the skin, structure, and mass don’t just describe each other but also have their own identities in two-dimensional spaces?!
-What is architecture most fundamentally but the physical demarcation of an inside from an outside?
These are the questions I am looking for in this project.

Inside we are surrounded, outside we are confronted by solidity and its surface. Each person definition of space in many ways. As he enters a space, a unique definition of space comes into his mind, developing, maturing, and influencing the definition until the end of that path.
These are experimental skills in model making and bringing meaning to spaces by putting fabrics on them and then taking them off; learning basic skills in the model making by crafting a short series of designs, focusing on composition, space, voids, forms, shapes, and function.
I imagined a structure constructed of overlapping elements and intersecting planes and layers, in a dialogue between the sculptural three-dimensional forms and the fabric on them; between Realism & Abstraction, presupposing that we can move beyond the existing context, the lattice becomes a stage for new content; creating a deep integration of space…
So I would tend to answer all these questions with the reasoning that the form doesn’t necessarily follow function but could also define itself in the way it is. In these works, I observe a process in which the fabric or outer layer is affected by internal volumes and is formed accordingly. But I deliberately made some changes to the shape of the fabric and the purpose is to show that the form does not necessarily have citizenship and that our definition of space is merely a relative definition.
The source of inspiration for building volumes is more than just my own mind and the use of scrap boxes in different sizes and the most from the book “structural packaging” by Paul Jackson.
The fabric was the one simple solution I came up with to define this space in my mind, how to make a series of volumes with different shapes and to put together with different compositions and cover them with fabric then I glue the form created on the fabric to the bottom and then remove the volume underneath the fabric. The result is that the fabric is formed by the volume of the population and the positive space beneath the fabric by the volumes.
On the other hand, this project defines the exterior layer under the influence of the interior. So that the outer layer can be changed by changing the layout of the volumes.

“The space in which we live consists of what we pull out of ourselves, where the ruin of our lives happens in our time and our history. This space that is gradually consuming us and weakening us, a space that is heterogeneous in itself, in other words, we do not live in a vacuum but in a set of relationships that define situations that cannot be equal or match each other in any way.”
-Michel Foucault,1993
“…greater sensitivity to the latent potential of situations might encourage us to think about things not just as they are but where they are going, what they will become.”
-Dana Zohar & Ian Marshall,1993
“…In the midst of this scattering, where all things are grouped together and spread out in front of us, what is referred to in every way as effective is a fundamental empty space, its necessary invisibility, in fact, what forms its foundation. (The disappearance of someone who is like him, who in his opinion is just an analogy).”
-Michel Foucault,1991

Organized forms are not simply performed in “physical” space, in the space of volumes. volumes themselves generate spaces, which are produced by and for their forms.
