MOVEMENT

21-08-2024

Fractal geometry is utilised in GMS to craft rhythmic patterns that evoke a sense of motion and energy. This feeling of movement and fluidity is further accentuated by using materials that reflect and refract light. Manipulating light, shadow, and depth can significantly enhance the perception of movement, particularly as light and shadows evolve throughout the day.

 

Shadows and darkness are essential to determine depth and distance. “In great spaces of architecture, there is a constant, deep breathing of shadow and light; shadow inhales, and illumination exhales, light.” (Pallasmaa).
