Reincarnations of the futures
by Slava on Mar.09, 2010, under 6 future congeries
As a follow up of our recent tour to the Klockgebouw, we’ve been invited to come and see the offices in the neighboring building, where the offices will be available for rent from April 1. This time an open tour (which was attended by 50+ people) has started with a general intro into a future vision of the Strijp-S (which was impressive, but also ve-e-e-ry long term too).
I spotted on a wall a large diagram presenting possible lighting solution of this future city-in-city (above is just a small fragment of it, about 10 percent). I spotted on the map a project to reincarnate Poeme electronique, the famous Philips pavilion at the Brussels’ World Expo in 1958. Coincidentally enough, at this very moment I am working on a presentation for the Russian Union of Designers later this month, where I start with the case of Poeme electronique. And now I also have a (relatively) promising end of the slide-show too
