Who does not long for that histrionic branch of the profession that leapt like clowns--pathetic yet courageous--off one cliff after another, hoping to fly, flapping with inadequate wings, but enjoying at least the free-fall of pure speculation?
Maybe such nostalgia is not merely a longing for the former authority of this profession (no one can seriously believe that architecture has become less authoritarian) but simply for fantasy. (查看原文)
...a system of fragments.
Nothingness here would be a modified Caspar David Friedrich landscape--a Teutonic forest intersected by Arizona highways; in fact, a Switzerland. (查看原文)

The ambition of this project is to rid architecture of responsibilities it can no longer sustain and to explore this new freedom aggressively. It suggests that, liberated from its former obligations, architecture's last function will be the creation of the symbolic spaces that accommodate the persistent desire for collectivity.

In Europe there are no typical plans. in 1929, Ivan Leonodov proposed the first office slab for Moscow, a House of Industy. It's rectangles we're conceived as socialist Typical Plans: a parallel zone reintroduce the full paraphernalia of daily life -- 099"s, pools, tanning beds, club like arrangements, small dormitories -- to create a compressed 24-hour cycle not of business-life, but of life-b...

In Europe there are no typical plans.
in 1929, Ivan Leonodov proposed the first office slab for Moscow, a House of Industy. It's rectangles we're conceived as socialist Typical Plans: a parallel zone reintroduce the full paraphernalia of daily life -- 099"s, pools, tanning beds, club like arrangements, small dormitories -- to create a compressed 24-hour cycle not of business-life, but of life-business.
The European office is thin, as thin as it's more historic substance. The European needs day-light and air, even though a simple extrapolation of the square meters involved reveals that this need will destroy the very decor that reassures him of his historical status.
Where the American office assembles a critical mass, the European office dismantles it, simply because the things that happen in an office are supposed to be "bad"
Could the office building be the most radical typology? A kind of reverse type defined by all the qualities it does <i>not</i> have? As the major new program of the modern age, its effect is one of deprogramming. Typical plan is the initial mutation in a chain that has revolutionized the urban condition. Concentration of Typical Plan has produced the skyscraper: unstable monolith; a...

Could the office building be the most radical typology? A kind of reverse type defined by all the qualities it does <i>not</i> have? As the major new program of the modern age, its effect is one of deprogramming.
Typical plan is the initial mutation in a chain that has revolutionized the urban condition. Concentration of Typical Plan has produced the skyscraper: unstable monolith; accumulation of skyscrapers, the only "new" urban condition: downtown, defined by sheer quantity rather than as a specific formal configuration. The centre is no longer unique but universal, no longer a place but a condition. Practically immune to local variation, Typical Plan has made the city unrecognizable, an unidentifiable object. Typical Plan is a quantum leap that provokes a conceptual leap: an <i>absence</i> of content in quantities that overwhelm, or simply preempt, interllectual speculation.
Did the plan without qualities create men without qualities? Was the space of Typical Plan the incubator of the man in the gray flannel suit?
It was as if Typical Plan created the castrated white-collar caricature, suppressed family photos, frowned on the fren, resisted the personal debris that now-20 years later- makes most offices ghastly repositories of individual trophies, packed with the alarming assertion of millions of individual mini-ecologies.
An environment that demanded nothing and gave everything was suddenly seen as an infernal machine for stripping identity.
Typical Plan is gridded, not in the absolute, clumsy manner of European Plantonic (a moralistic system to measure misfit and thus create unhappiness), but on the the contrary, through the development of anti-ideological devices: a metaphysics of slack that gives an aura of crispness to even the most severely conflicted geometrical coexistences, bestowing the appearance of modular conquest on th...

As in the scene of a crime, the removal of all obvious signs of the perpetrator characterizes the true typical plan; it authors form an avant-garde of architcts as erasers.

Its unsung designers -- Bunshaft, Harrison and Abramovitz, Emery Roth -- represent vanishing acts so successful that they are now completely forgotten. These architects were able to create aleatory playgrounds (interior Elysian fields accessible in anyone's lifetime). i.e., perfection in quantites--trillions of acres -- that have become, 25 years later, literally unimaginable.
Securely entrenched in the domain of philistinism(n.庸俗,没有文化修养), Typical Plan actually has hidden affinites with other artsL the positioning of its cores on the floor has a suprematist(至上主义) tension; it is the equivalent of atonal music, seriality, concrete poetry, art brut(原生艺术); it is architecture as mantra.

觉得像中国这样一个有历史情结的国家,尽管近代中国城市文脉很混乱,但我们依然要避免瑞姆.库哈斯在《The Generic City 》一文中对城市身份丢弃的错误,现代城市的身份应该有历史延续的通俗的容易理解的形式转换。除非这个城市没有历史。

库哈斯之后出的集子们似乎都没有这一部来的震撼,无论是整本书的架构,还是他的叙事本身,读一百遍就有一百遍启发。
