Diagrams are abstract. To become architecture, they are translated into form.

Architecture of Thinness
Superflat
Art and Architecture of Thinness
Ryue Nishizawa:
Historically, architects must relate to aspects of the surroundings, but that has always focused on real things such as material or shape. I think that today, almost half of our daily life is occupied by information society, and although information society is invisible, I think that architecture must have some sort of relationship with such a society. And I don't know what type of answer there might be, but I think that there must be some intersecting possibilities for change.
I: Is there a relationship between the information society and the idea of thinness?
Kazuyo Sejima:
Yes there is, but I don't know exactly how. In order to think about the information society there seems to be a relationship to the idea of dimension or the effect of the mass or the volume on us. But it also relates to the reflective quality of glass as well, as opposed to its transparent quality.

Ito and Sejima approach the discourse of the diagram in a way that goes beyond the confines of its dualistic constructions. With no regret, Sejima confronts the fact that her architectural drawings have become diagrams.
When the diagram is approached as the necessary product of an idea, it perpetrates a betrayal. For the moment the diagram is materialized, it is unable to keep the promises of its originating program. Subjects constantly see, do, and say things unpronounced in the program, using the architecturla instruments for purposes contrary to its 'idea'.
