JUST ADD WATER, ARCHITECTURE FOR THE 21ST CENTURY
FORM MAKING IN THE CONTEXT OF WATER
BUILDING ON THE WORK PRODUCED IN 2017 AT THE HANS ZIMMER CONCERT, JUST ADD WATER IS AN EVOLUTION IN CONTEMPLATION OF HOW WE WILL ADDRESS THE CHANGING DYNAMIC OF WATER IN OUR BUILT ENVIRONMENT. WE ARE ENTERING INTO A NEW PHASE FOR OUR UNDERSTANDING OF HOW WE LIVE WITH WATER. LONG HAVE WE DESIGNED WITH A STABLE SET OF RULES, DEVELOPED OVER DECADES TO ESTABLISH BOUNDARIES AND METHODOLOGIES THAT HAVE INFORMED AND DIRECTED THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT AS WE KNOW IT TODAY.
THE RULES ARE CHANGING AND THE CONDITIONS WITHIN WHICH WE DWELL ARE TRANSFORMING IN OUR LIFETIME. WE MUST BRING A NEW PERSPECTIVE TO OUR UNDERSTANDING OF HOW OUR BUILT ENVIRONMENT INTERACTS WITH THE CHANGING NATURAL ENVIRONMENT IF WE INTEND TO THRIVE IN THE 21ST CENTURY. THIS IS A STUDY, AND AN OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK AT THINGS WITH A FRESH PERSPECTIVE. OUR WORK IS TO LEARN FROM WHAT WE KNOW IS SUCCESSFUL AND CHANGE THAT WHICH IS NOT.
WITH RESPECT AND GRADITUDE
