Creativity according to

Herman Hertzberger

A simple recipe for creativity written by architectHerman Hertzberger (1999, 2000, 2002):

1. break off the cliché,2. collect many images, 3. locate them in another context and4. start to adapt them.

Break off the cliché

Robert Delaunay (1913)

Change context (for example museum)

Marcel Duchamps (1917)

Combine, leave out, adapt

Pablo Picasso (1942)

Adapt reference images

Model them in a composition

• dividing (verdelen)*

• articulating (geleden)*

• tailoring (tailleren)*

• detailing (detailleren)*

* translated from Dutch

Dividing, Articulating

Tailoring, Detailing

adapting to context components and connecting details

Composition

• marking out components, their variation and characteristic details,• connecting details between components,• crucial details in the composition,• determining striking details.

Design related Study

Preface by Rector FokkemaWithin the range of a technical university the object of design – in terms of (urban) architecture and technique – is the design subject that is amongst all others most sensitive to context.The program of requirements is not only derived from an economical and technical context, but also from contexts hailing from political, cultural, ecological en spatial considerations; on many levels of scale.
