The Geometry of Geology


A recent post midnight and champagne conversation on the post modern nature of Melbourne's design culture had me thinking about design motifs. Geology was my least favourite subject at school, but I found this image really interesting as a possible way into a design process. Can the geology of the site be reflected in the designed landscape in three dimensional form? i.e. not just inform how deep the footings need to be and what type of plants will survive.
