Too often, space or void, has been considered an a priori condition. Rather than using it and it's relationship to solids to create a harmony and balance of form, void has been unconsciously disregarded as a virtual nonelement in design.
This thesis attempts to bring a tangible character to the void; to design the void as if it were a solid form. In doing so, the limiting properties of solid are broken down. Defining characteristics of solid and void are shared and boundaries are blurred.
