Surmount & Dilute, The Current Predicament 2

Surmount and Dilute (2) features examples of brilliant and beautiful buildings that challenge boundaries and perception, they are daring in their design; twisting, turning, wildly spiralling creations that belong to the future, that pull our gaze and our imagination skywards. Using almost impossible mirrored walls of glass and metal, to reflect the cloud- worlds they inhabit back to the weary and the earth-bound, in the grey confines of the urban landscape they become awe-inspiring, exciting possibilities for who we might be; their function is both practical and escapist, re-defining our social identity and built environment. Interiors are designed to offer maximum use of natural light and materials, swimming pools and green-tree growing spaces create a newly addictive way to live in close proximity to others, while maintaining a personal sense of distance and freedom.
