Abel Cahen's graduation project (University of Delft, 1970) envisioned an alternative approach to urban design that proposed to engage with complexity and uncertainty as primary foundations of the architect's task. Inspired by the 1960s revisionist attitude, Cahen worked with a series of abstract activity diagrams which appear chaotic, but are based on highly coherent geometric structures. Always disregarded by scholars as a mere formal game, this essay endeavors to rescue Cahen's project from historical oblivion and present it as a radical theoretical manifesto that reflects upon the architects' available tools to handle complexity, while recognizing the risks and limitations of strictly rational design processes. | |
