DESCRITIVO:

The research project explores a conceptual territory initiated by Calatrava with is doctoral thesis on the technological concept of foldability, “Zur Faltbakeit von Fachwerkein”, that generated a thesaurus of possible folding structures in an analogy to compact and movable components that the field of aeronautics aims to explore. Calatrava’s sketches depict the human body as a foldable structure and a key factor in his architectural work, from a point of view that integrates symbology, metaphor and analogy in the context of variables such as space-time, light-colour, shadow-reflection, movement-materiality. A core aspect of this project is to research the creative continuum of designo of his body of work according to archetypical metaphors of line but also of colour, the knowledge of biological behavior – the optical, in particular – and the practice of bionics and biomimetics.
