ALS 2011 Process

Here I am showing the first round design that is being reviewed by the Director and Chief Curator at the Aspen Art Museum for the 2011 Architecture Lecture Series. The ALS is a series of free public presentations, that brings world-renowned architects to Aspen to discuss the role of public architecture in our society and how its form, style, and purpose impact our engineered landscapes. In this particular design I used the Fibonacci spiral as a starting grid for a rules based grid design system, I then used this grid to form linear styled lettering, in this instance developed two letter "M"s standing for Mikou of Mikou Design Studio. So in concept and production I emulated an architectural process. Grid system shown after the jump.
