spatial analysis drawing addressing negative space in traffic flows

Posted by Picasa
Heidegger's ideas on architectural space revolve around the application of a phenomenological significance to that space. In the US, vehicles provide a space for socialising, commerce, love, worship etc. Life occurs in these isolated pods of space, and the fluid negative spaces in between these pods allow for for these vehicles to function as such. When the negative space is reduced to nothing the architecture fails, and its phenomenological significance is abruptly ended through the removal of one of the 'fourfold', mortality. This is my pictorial analysis of those relationships in accordance with negative space.
