DESIGN FOR STREETS ON PAPER MATHHODD SERIES PHILIPPE HALABURDA STUDIO 2017
The right angle
The right angle
Mathhodd series on paper, New York, 2017
In a reference to the Commissioners' Plan of 1811, the original design for the streets, I imagined an opposite design of the city and create this irregular grid.
In comparison with irregular street patterns of older cities, my grid proposes unexpected angles and structures
where there is no control, no balance, and no order.
It's call for liberty and a research for what urban planners call "the right angle".
