Summary:

What if architecture was no longer 3D or 2D, mass or surface, object or space? And what if the architectural environment was envisioned not as an abstract continuum but as a material envelope that grows organically from the human body? Such a sprawling hypothesis informs the theoretical premise of Ebeling's essay.
