It sounds great and very malleable, flexible to the designers whims, but eventually it might have to be set down, place on a surface. What happens when it comes time to choose where this delicate creation rests.

I prefer to begin with a project that is grounded. Like planting a seed a project can grow out of the site its planted in. It evolves to fit its surroundings, warping, morphing.
