GROWTH OR FEAR

Thresholds are places of transition, mental and physical. Is it curiosity, wonder or even boredom which entices us to cross new thresholds?  Why do we decide not to cross a threshold?  Is it fear?

Freedom or danger?

"Philosophers, when confronted with the outside and inside,

think in terms of being and non-being.....open and closed, for him, are thoughts"

                                                                                                 The Poetics of Space, G Bachelard

New Horizons

"The experience of entering a building influences the ways you feel inside the building.  If transition is too abrupt there is no feeling of arrival and the inside of the building fails to be an inner sanctum..."

A Pattern Language, C Alexander

Jake Baddeley, Thresholds III

"If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of this cavern."

William Blake, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell.
