Triangulation of closest points
Closest path within triangulation
Raising triangulation accordingly
The topography of any given site is developed in different ways considering topology in architectural drawing. The observations
in the subsequent body of drawings constitute a topological landscape with a great many parallels to the architectural context. It
may be described in time and space, as a complex traversed by forces, transformation and synergy; expressing and confguring
varied and ambigous signifcanies through constellations that are both real and virtual. The method seeks to provoke a mode of
operation in-between the real and the virtual, which may be said to hold the subject as its pivot along the phenomenology of
the architectural object; omnipresently considering and shaping virtual constructions capable of instrumenalizing ambiguity and
opening up a topological production of architectural meaning.
