The most influential aspect of their blind sketches is their
redefinition of the design process. While the sketches can be
lumped in with architecture that places form over function, the
basis of form here is vague and mysterious. The architects (and

to transform them in to a built work. Notions of scale, program,
and material do not enter into the design process as early as
with other, more conventional, practices. Instead the firm ever-increasingly
complex models to find structural and design solutions that extend
the feeling, and appearance, of their initial sketches. |
