Spectacle of the Facade

Many of you are still trying to figure out the larger scale question of how your culinary institutes will be "different" from those produced by your colleagues.  At the same time, more astute students have been trying to take advantage of the local site factors including microclimate, available materials, and even drawing upon the tourist flows through the site. Some of you have already brought to the discussion ideas pertaining to a responsive wall driven by wind.  Though that is certainly possible, there are some inherent difficulties that you should consider including vandalism, access/repair, net effect, etc.  Not to sound too pessimistic, here is the Sowers Studios project that made headlines earlier last week for its wind-driven Windswept project.
