The inspiration for the City of Culture of Galicia originated from the idea of the form being an artificial landscape. The end result portrayed an actual natural, organic landform in the shape of fluid hills rippling and layering across the horizon. Folding and melting within the landscape.

On Eisenman’s style, with both his linear and organic forms he divides, slices and splits his forms into different layers to define different parts of the form. The idea of layering is evident in my 3D visual ideas. His works are similar to layering the pieces together to create his cluster of buildings. By looking at the City of Galicia from a birds eye view it is clear his method of ‘putting the layers of puzzles together’ has been implemented into the creation of this form.
