After coming to the conclusion that the most relevant and commonly shared value nowadays is experience, we sat together and shared our memories, thoughts, ideas about buildings we had seen and experienced or just found triggering as architects. We did this avoiding to look at plans and images, and translated our dialogues into sketches. The attempt of drawing existing buildings by heart, based on nothing else than experience soon enough lost any aim of showing things how they really are. We ended up bringing in fantasies, personal memories and perceptions, interpretations, desires, critiques and so on. A collection of fictional images grown out of experience of many existing buildings was suddenly on the table. It shows the fictional cores of these pieces of architecture beyond the limitations of reality, just as felt in person and stored in our head. What we found out is that how we see things and decode them into ideas and feelings is the fictional potential within the real world.
