1 Introduction While it is the expectation of this thesis to have all previously discussed literature, case studies and analysis inform the formulation of an architectural framework inspired by food, a clearer mood of exploration is needed to further demonstrate how this can be done. Armed with the understanding that the definition of food encompasses individual ingredients, its preparation, and consumption, this section considers the transformative methodology of architect Sarah Wigglesworth and Jeremy Till as a point of departure. This chapter is divided into three sections beginning with an analysis of Wigglesworth and Till’s approach in Section 3.1, followed by Section 3.2, which demonstrates how this attitude of creating architecture …show more content…

Visibly, corresponding geometry was perspicaciously reinterpreted into architectural elements such as walls and stairs. While an effective approach, this method is very literal in its architectural translation. Conversely, an extensive assessment of Wigglesworth and Till’s, “The Meal” drawing unveils a potential poetic form of interpretation through mapping (see Figure 4.2-33).This method involves the recording of actions and movement during a process, in this case the partaking of food via a …show more content…

Firstly, expand the influential bands of mapping by allowing it to inform not only two dimensional architectural elements such as floor plans but serve as a catalyst for three dimensional conceptual forms. Secondly, apply the mapping method to investigating all processes and transformative phases associated with food. Finally, creatively seek to harvest poetic design concepts rather than literal. These additional amendments will yield a more inclusive extraction of conceptual design and meaningful architectural translation. And it is this thinking which serves as the basis for the following chapter as it investigates using mapping which goes beyond merely recording the dining experience but the actions require transforming a simple ingredients into a
