Space of Anticipation investigates the tension between structural precision and ornamental expression through the design of an architectural fragment. Inspired by the sharp, skeletal forms of Joshua Tree's Kellogg Doolittle House, the project explores how architectural elements can suggest movement, instability, and suspension.
The resulting stair tread combines an asymmetrical structure with delicate vertical rods and a compressed base. One side appears heavily supported while the other seems almost weightless, creating a deliberate sense of physical tension. Developed through digital modeling and CNC fabrication, the piece reconsiders the stair as an object of anticipation rather than simply a functional transition.
