Zibaldone 9

When examining the Harvard building along Huntington Ave. the one face of the building looks like a 2 dimensional wall almost as if there isn't any building there. When you continue to walk  you realize that it isn't just a wall, however the a very acute corner condition of the building. Although visually from the outside this building implies a feeling that the building is thin or flat, on the inside it creates an unrealistic space. Similar to when you try to make grass grow in between two sidewalks at an acute angel, the corner in this building is creating a dead space. People can't inhabit the space therefore making this condition merely visual and not practical.
