I chose the Slow House by
Diller & Scofidio (D&S), designed in 1989 for a Japanese art investor. I chose this plan for
two reasons. Firstly because this architecture firm interests me, now named
Diller Scofidio & Renfro (DS&R), the architects tread the
line between art and architecture creating conceptual sculptures, installations
and performance works as well as buildings. I also chose this house because it
was never built. I think there is a certain irony in this as although it does
not actually exist, the concept and design remains one of D&S’ most
influential projects. The concept for the house is centred on the idea of ‘the
view’ and I have already been exploring different views in making my valley in
cryengine as I am looking at the different views ofthat can be experienced as you drive along the Western Distributor/Cahill Expressway in Sydney.
