Design. Architecture. Media. Fashion. New technologies and new philosophical concepts have converted what was once wishful thinking and referred to disparagingly as 'paper ideas' into a world suddenly full of exciting architectural forms. Today, in the words of Wolf Prix, 'You can only succeed in architecture if you are doing visionary buildings in terms of programme, shape and structure. ' These new ideas, inspired also by science and the space industry, have filtered through to the worlds of business, sport, shopping and entertainment. This is not innovation for the sake of innovation but art and architecture based on carefully considered ideas that enhance and add visually to our experience of life today. 2 Kg.
