FO R M & SPACE: TH E UNIT Y O F O P P O S IT ES

At the scale of a building, we tend to read the configurations of
walls as the positive elements of a plan. The white space in between,
however, should not be seen simply as background for the walls, but
also as figures in the drawing that have shape and form.

Even at the scale of a room, articles of furnishings can either stand
as forms within a field of space or serve to define the form of a
spatial field.
