Lot 88: SOLD 'Dichotomy' by Zaha Hadid
The design evokes an exquisite degree of unfamiliarity from within the formal simplicity of this most recognizable of organic structures; a structured composition of fluidity that reinvents the equilibrium between solid and void. The dynamic curvilinear geometries invite further investigation to reveal ...
Lot 138: SOLD 'OVO' by Fourfoursixsix (constructed by EOS & Ogle Models)
As an architecture practice, we were interested in applying a set of architectural principles to the geometric form of the egg.

Lot 81: 'Scrambled Egg City' by Catrina L. Stewart
This design draws inspiration from Reyner Banham’s description of the postmodern city as being like a “scrambled egg”. In this design the top of the hard shell is dissolved to reveal an imaginary city inside, where the core will be negotiated by the pedestrian in ways that defy the logic of rationalist ...
