This was one of my favourite readings from the module as it highlights three different elements in design; architectural vision, use of representational technologies and a collaborative network for design and construction. I liked how the authors apply these three elements to the four architectural cases and shows the contrast in requirements. For example, for the 'Experience Music Project' in Seattle, construction was not as heavily regulated as opposed to the architecture in Bilbao.
Out of the four designs I was most intrigued by the design of the 'Fish Sculpture' in Barcelona as it incorporated stainless steel panels and an exposed steel structure to mimic a fish in a pond.
