111 inception

What is inspiration? What inspires you? 111 INCEPTION is a chain of inspiration, which involves 111 architects from around the world. This book was not guided by theory, yet it grew out of a search for new ways to look at authorship, ideas and inspiration. The experimental and playful character of the project itself, with its unpredictable outcomes, allowed for a much needed change of perspective - away from the traditional approach to creation characteristic of modernity and towards inspiration - which does not respect borders. The exhibition '100 Experiments. Inspiration in Design Processes' was on show at AEDES Gallery, Berlin in 2019. 'Design is not only what you see, but how it makes you feel today and how it creates your tomorrow.' - Anna Bates
