The project looks at relationships, spatial, formal and contextual, between domestic objects and architecture. The three pieces that make up S/O3 are site-specific: wall, corner and horizontal surface. The generation of each of these forms evolves from two kinds of inter-dependency operating simultaneously - the relation of object to object, and of objects to these specific locations.

The three projects S/O1, S/O2 and S/O3 each trace their own trajectory of ideas yet their outcomes intersect and cross-inform. They represent developments and further contributions to a larger project exploring the object/viewer/context relation as an inherent source of form generators. This work, which I have been pursuing for the past thirty years, has been instrumental in setting new paradigms in working methods in the applied arts during this period. This, and the work of other like-minded individuals in the 1970's, re-conceptualised the relation between theory and practice.

The forms of SUBJECTivity/OBJECThood 3 are highly abstract as objects, distilled down to geometric essentials. This move away from the specific, in terms of an object's domestic function, lends an ambiguity that in turn opens the possibility for direct engagement with three architectural 'givens' - walls, corners and horizontal surfaces, thereby establishing a kind of physical equation and visual reciprocity with the rectilinear of architectural space. Intersecting this geometry is the 'personal' geometry of space perception and orientation, the experiential space of the viewing subject.
