Heartfelt congratulations to Thom Mayne on the publication of his latest 1008-page epic book “M(3): Modeled Works [archive] 1978-2022”. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to contribute a chapter, “Moderials and Their Existential Discontents”, written as a poem.
Writing about the life and death of architectural models was a unique experience, and I am honored to be featured alongside many noteworthy luminaries in the world of architecture including Sir Peter Cook, David Adjaye, Stan Allen, Tadao Ando, Neil Denari, Liz Diller, Steven Holl, Kengo Kuma, Daniel Libeskind, Greg Lynn, Jean Nouvel, Wolf Prix, Nader Tehrani, Anthony Vidler, and Kenneth Frampton among others.
Thank you, Thom, for inviting me to participate and encouraging me to write in a creative and unconventional manner. Your passion and expertise are truly inspiring.” #ThomMayne #M3 #MorphosisModelMonograph #Architecture #Creativity #MaheshDaas
