Earth branded architecture - EBA a wildetecture design concept.
































A building using the QJD logo as an earth branded architectural reference point of design departure - This concept shows strong wildetecture design ideals .

The end product is an outcome which cannot be carefully manicured by mans rigid accountant like design approach. The point of design departure makes the end product more dendromorphological. (dendromorphology)  - This concept is pivotal when designing using the wildetecture architectural design ideals. Where mans grid like box design thinking is put aside for natures natural flow. 

Considering the sculptural aspects of the architectural design process over mans algorythmic design process. Man has long designed his way to the point of accountant controlled architecture. Less is more, dont go over budget design controls.

The wild organic uncontrolled design nature of this approach is exciting. The wild lipstick and lace that the style of wildetecture finds exciting and explores an architectural style expression for.

Academy of inventive design and technology - 002































The concept of Earth Branded Architecture - To create an AIDS clinic from the very item that symbolises hope for so many. The AIDS ribbon is simply a great idea. Jacques Kriel a student at academy IDT pushed the boundaries of EBA with this wonderful proposal. I really like the fact that the structure is wedge shaped so that the ribbon is not only read from the sky - but from ground level as well.


It would be great if the health authorities in Africa looked to ideas like this when considering the next AIDS clinic. Well done Jacques - Now that you've produced this gem - the pressures on for your next architectural masterpiece design.

students work 001


















Ruan Le Roux one of the draughting design students at academy IDT welded his passion for architecture / graphics /skating / design into a head quarters for the DC shoe company.


Ruan received a deserved A+ for this earth branded architectural 3D conceptualized design assignment . To my mind it is innovative architectural design like this that is always a pleasure to mark.

Earth Branded Architecture - EBA - wildetecture style





Mankinds endeavours to communicate with his many gods using earth graphic sketch is well evidenced around the world. He might not have always dialled the right number. However he did manage to speak through time to the earths future travelers. As mans technology allows us now to view our world from above, it opens up an array of architectural design possibilities.

Henry Matisse advised his younger colleagues to fly, for there was no better key to the optical code of the world. Now through Google earth average man in the street can fly. Apart from the Nazca lines, crop circles are another source of incredible pattern graphic inspiration. There other worldly allure is undeniable and keying into their 3D aesthetic appeal is really dynamic.

I have pulled my QJD design studio logo into an architectural building to illustrate the possibilities of a (logotecture) conceptual architectural design concept. E.B.A design architecture concept. Earth Branded Architecture. 
We can create 3D crop circle buildings or even entire cities that key into their coat of arms. Using hundreds of buildings to create a complex pattern on the earths surface. This type of design would take much discipline and collaboration, however the cities that key into this concept would be able to use this opportunity to unite its citizens with 1 bigger picture idea. We can also speak through time to future generations and let them know we had the foresight, vision and discipline to create beauty using perspectives for future generations to enjoy.

Unlock what previous long gone minds where trying to showcase. Add perspectives into your designs that will change the nature of your architectural elevations. The massing of your architectural design from a human scale perspective will change if the thread of your design process is unique.
