Descrizione (it)
What is the ideal place for a person to live? A skyscraping condominium in a prime location in the middle of a city? A resort hotel at a scenic beach? A cottage deep in the mountains or a tent in the desert, both far from civilization? There is a surprisingly common theme among the various mythologies of mankind. We also share the structure of our languages. Similarly, the structure of our homes fundamentally resemble each other as well. This is all because myths, languages and homes are all prescribed before hand by the structure of the human brain and body. If you search the ideal space for humans, wouldn’t its size, shape, structure and materials all go back to one archetype? Would it be possible to create a single unit out of that archetypal space? Nirvana Mini aims to answer these questions.
