ArtPunkt - Center for Artistic Studies

It is like an architectural version of Woody Allen in his film Deconstructing Harry, when unbearable distress causes his silhouette to blur. Did the architects have anything particular in mind when veiling the modesty of the interiors and mathematical rigour of the elevations? Could ArtPunkt's exterior be saying something about the world or art in the same way that Allen's blurred shape was saying something about his mental condition? Knowing how straightforward Domicz are, it seems unlikely. For them, architecture does not need to speak literally since it is a language with its own specificity and its own rules of use. My guess is that they simply wanted to make a building that differs from typical architecture just as contemporary art differs from the everyday. And if there is any camouflaged message in the ArtPunkt's escape from total rationality and self-discipline, it may have something to do with the influence of their son, who is a promising art student.
