註釋
Unfortunately this book is sold out. But you can still view it at: books.google.nl Unseen I slipped away takes an unexpected and poetic look at the essence of architecture and the hidden dimensions of the design process. What are sovereignty and singularity in a world adrift on a sea of generic and global views? What is identity in an age when it is unfashionable to utter the word? And how can one design a particular and precise object without it compromising its ambiguity? In answering these questions architect Maurice Nio seeks to approach architecture from its extremities rather than researching its nucleus. It is an investigation of the most conceptual and the most technical aspects, of the most abstract and the most personal. Everything normally passing for architecture is relegated to the sidelines. Unseen I slipped away is the first book in a trilogy entitled Priority. Each of the three volumes treats four architectural projects and a particular theme. This volume focuses on Sovereignty & Singularity. 'Unseen I slipped away' is een even precies als raadselachtig boek. De teksten zijn in een prettig leesbare, tegen het literaire aanleunende stijl geschreven, met veel referenties aan literatuur en film. Ze vormen daarmee een tot nadenken stemmende aanvulling op de doorsnee architectuurliteratuur. Piet Vollaard on www.archined.nl, August 19th 2004.
