Architecture speculation pushes boundaries
Hydramax is billed by its designer, San Francisco's Future Cities Lab, as "a synthetic architecture ... that blurs the distinction between building, landscape, infrastructure and machine." The model and drawings are on display through July 29 at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. (Image: Future Cities Lab)
The word "speculation" is altered by the context in which it appears. Stockbrokers use it in a certain way, workplace gossips in another.
There's also an architectural dimension that kicks in as designers pursue visions that have no realistic chance of ever being built. There are different motivations: to plant seeds, question norms or nudge the public debate.
