DANIEL LIBESKIND: BEYOND THE WALL – INTERNI HYBRID

ARCHITECTURE & DESIGN
‘beyond the wall’ by architect daniel   libeskind explores architecture as more
than aesthetics and technique, and rather as a source for creativity and
knowledge that ‘lives and breathes, characterized by an interior and an
exterior, with a body and a soul, like the human being.’ the installation
currently on display is based on the idea of a radiating spiral rendered as a
complex series of stacked angular geometries with different central axesthat
push and pull in oppo sing directions, dubbed a ‘math ematical mosaic’, the
structure exhibits the characteristics of an endless fractal – the bacteriostatic
quartz surface silestone is etched with a continuation of geom etries that
represents the contemporary tile, or ‘fractile ‘, tesselated but never quite
identically repeated, the unique surface treatment is developed by the
consentino group, who produces high-quality surfac es for architectural and
design purposes, the pattern is essential to the overall massing, breaking
down the scale and propor tion of the twisting planesas they rise to the
zenith of the construction.
