Design support
Reasonable intention
Stress concentration
Architectural details can relate as interacting angles and textures. Articulating an excursion to a reciprocating mental substratum, aesthetics is an alternate realm of experience affording a deeper stratum of cogitation.
“Designing structures is an art and this needs to be transparent, as designs come and go but creativity stays there.” – Tabish Rasool
Muscle mania
Rumbling machismo
Trendy irreverence
Power and speed are compelling attributes, continuing to hold an allure that stretches across the decades. Generating enthusiasm that struck a responsive chord with something particularly American, a prime motivation for marketing such fast-and-furious machines involved gratifying a sense of ardent individual freedom.
“Little GTO . . . You’re really lookin’ fine, three deuces and a four-speed and a three-eighty-nine. Listen to her tachin’ up now, listen to her whine.” – John Buck Wilkin
Long and low
Snazzy roadster
Indomitable spirit
In native American cultures, different versions of the Thunderbird are patterned after a mythical Eagle which commands the sky and its demeanor. Specific symbolic meaning differs in accordance with tribal affiliation and regional attributes, generally involving spiritual concepts of truth, powerful energy, and destiny. With an emphasis on image over practicality, Ford attempted to transfer theses associations into a highly styled, mass produced, sporty luxury vehicle.
“To encounter the sacred is to be alive at the deepest center of human existence.” – N. Scott Momaday
In a babbling
Developed flow
Enjoy wading
Walking over public artifacts may well offer abstract extraction opportunities. Here a weathered expression painted on asphalt in an alley inspires a creative jumping-off posture. It is satisfying to use old art to inspire new art.
“There’s a fine line between a stream of consciousness and a babbling brook to nowhere.” – Dan Harmon
Arrange together components
Various conceptual elements
Formed into an aggregate
The simultaneous combination of aligning images formulates an unanticipated visual harmony of vastly disparate locations.
“He who lives in harmony with himself lives in harmony with the universe.” – Marcus Aurelius
Competing currents
Practical conventions
Dialectical duration
The intelligence analytically and scientifically apprehends an abstracted reality, while intuition grasps an experienced reality psychologically and spiritually. Although physical science provides practical knowledge, such knowledge is a manufactured, static construct of reality extracted from its dynamic completeness.
“If consciousness has to split up into intuition and intelligence, it is because of the need it had to apply itself to matter at the same time as it had to follow the stream of life. The double form of consciousness is due to the double form of the real.” – Henri Bergson
Close formation
Imminent distance
Physically within reach
Interrelationships have a tendency to accumulate in space and time. In the continuous flux of life, we organize units of correlativity into manageable discrete fragments.
“I was within and without, simultaneously enchanted and repelled by the inexhaustible variety of life.” – F. Scott Fitzgerald
General conception
Amalgamation

An attempted expression of thought and feeling is articulated by a composed representational relationship. In such encounters, dissimilar particulars are grasped as significant by association.
“Our logical analysis, in company with immediate intuition, enables us to discern a more special society within the society of pure extension.” – Alfred North Whitehead
Radical opposition
Concept intuition
Process interpretation
Organized surface singularities found in the street in the form of cryptic symbols intricate the presence of hidden messages. The notion of significance multiplicity is understood in different ways.
“Thus, intuition may bring the intellect to recognize that life does not quite go into the category of the many nor yet into that of the one; that neither mechanical causality nor finality can give a sufficient interpretation of the vital process.” – Henri Bergson
Volition affects
Arbitrary assumption
Successively subordinate
Interesting graphical relationships can be both found and constructed in the street, as material things proceed by a gradual accumulation of alteration effects. The entirety of nature is involved in the tonality of the particular instance.
“The doctrine which I am maintaining is that the whole concept of materialism only applies to very abstract entities, the products of logical discernment. The concrete enduring entities are organisms, so that the plan of the whole influences the very characters of the various subordinate organisms which enter into it.” – Alferd North Whitehead
