The Article

Rikke Stenbro explores in the article the idea that the simple model as the famous Dom-ino house has facilitated mass-produced buildings and a more generic city. This, as a consequence, gave rise to increased interest for preservation as well as cultivation of monuments as the preferred category for building conservation.

Illustarting rhythm

The article explores how an invention of a module changed the way we think about monuments. I wanted to explore how the iconic drawing fits in this rhythm and builds it.
