Beschreibungen/Notizen

• We are concerned, not with ‘architecture’ or ‘town planning’, but with the creation of environment at every scale . . . The problems which we face in making our world are entirely new, for our society is entirely new. The concept of society towards which we strive: that of a completely open, nonhierarchical co-operative in which we all share on a basis of total participation and complete confidence . . . We cannot think of planning in static terms, – in three-dimensional space, when we live in a fourdimensional world. The realization, for instance, that the scene of action of reality is not a three-dimensional Euclidean space but rather a fourdimensional world, in which space and time are linked together indis - solubly, sets our civilization apart from any others.
