architecture as a form of imagineering, but it seems as if every realization of it, when its stated intent is revealed, promises its own failure. im thinking of the IBA housing, corbusier's villa radieuse. its almost as if for a concept to live, it should not be built.

and yet its the alternative such as the projects of raymond hood etc, where such a conceptual vacuum gives room for it to absorb its own character. what do you think?
