Zaha Hadid and the “Inspired Time Machine”

From Eliinbar’s sketchbook 2013 -Zaha Hadid Inspiration Sources

From time to time I come across a building that explains everything.

Recently been completed the construction of Zaha Hadid‘s Galaxy Soho in Beijing China.

What are the sources of inspiration for this building? 

I can think about two sources of inspiration for the Zaha Hadid‘s Galaxy Soho.

Frank Lloyd Write‘s Guggenheim Museum’s is  Zaha Hadid‘s  Source of Knowledge,

And Foster‘s London City Hall is the “Source of Inspiration“.

Each one of them has a different role in generating Zaha Hadid‘s design for the Galaxy Soho.

For You to judge…

Note the unique peripheral windows

Also note to the dominant oval building profile

Note the sophistication of this building.

It is characterized by varying shapes and sizes,

But built with  repetitive elements (for example, the coverings of the horizontal curving  elements)

Can anyone tell me how to get out of here? (:

I could not pass pass out the following phenomenon recently published in ARCHDAlLY .

Is this example is more of “Conscious Inspiration” or more of “Copy Past”?

What do you think?

A “short talk” about “Conscious Inspiration” January 2013

“Inspiration” or “Copy Paste” are the most dominant phenomenon of the 21st century among architects.

Most likely , the “availability of information” enables the existence of the phenomenon.

The abundance of information in the Web affects us all… I present it every week in my blog, accompanied by my explanation sketches.

We saw more than once, differences between “Conscious Inspiration” and “copy paste” are not so big…

With this challenge, the “Conscious inspiration Method” wants to cope.

I believe that the natural development of architecture design is based on inspiration techniques ….I call them “Codex Rules”.

I strive to develop a method.

A method that will help architects and designers to cope with this phenomenon, At this point in time, I call it the “Conscious Inspiration Method”…

With the methodology of “conscious Inspiration”, we don’t need to be intimidated to get inspired from relevant buildings.  Once we develop our tools =“Codex Rules”, it will lead us to high quality creative architecture.

The “Conscious Inspiration Method‘,  How it Works?

First step: “knowledge”, as many said and wrote before; knowledge is the foundation for all designing process. We architects and designers are obliged to be informed about everything that was designed in the past and on a daily basis.

Second step: develop Conscious Inspiration personal  tools = “Codex Rules”.

Third step: the inspiration Source. (Don’t be intimidated to get inspired from relevant buildings).

Step Four: realize your design idea (your invention).

Five “HOWS” of the “Conscious Inspiration Method”

1. How to filter out relevant knowledge from the Web with abundance of information?

2. How to develop your own vision?

3. How to choose the right “Inspiration Sources” that empowers your vision?

4. How to develop your own personal design tools?

5. How to use your inspiration sources as the “Planning Process Generator”, and to design high quality creative architecture?
