ABSTRACT
This chapter describes about the notion of furnishing alleviated architecture as solely responsible for meeting all human wants and desires. Room motivates the designer, as an initial act, to observe, identify, and describe the size, complexity etc. Architect and educator Lars Bleher advocates for design expression residing at a scale between rooms and freestanding pieces of furniture. Walls and dragonfly-wing shaped roof elements slip past one another, blurring distinctions between interior and exterior space, while the informal configuration of drawn furnishings suggests mobility and impermanence, showing less the mark of the designer and rather the designs of others. Notions of architecture as encampment and furnishings raise important questions about perceptions of boundedness and breadth of inhabitation. Furnishings are essential participants in this 'lateral spread', drawing out continuities between the specific immediacy of embodied experience and mediations of a more expansive nature. Landscape rooms acquire their features and contours from the regional landscapes in which they are situated.
