Because of the universe’s infinite, ever-growing algorithm, we are able to learn and extract infinite data. As a matter of fact, many of the concepts are used metaphorically to describe a new way of embracing possible design processes. The world is nowadays going from “paradigm shifts” towards “paradigm superpositions”, as described by the quantum state.

"Superposition of contextual paradigms with the paranoid critical method" explores merging two opposing approaches in architecture in way to celebrate new form-finding design strategies and further development of current methodologies. Combining contextual factors with intentional irrationality can give birth to innovative, context-sensitive architecture; while technology aids its integration. The proposal is an innovative spatio-temporal urban museum along the dam of the Artificial Lake of Tirana, conceived and further generated using the combination of contextual paradigms with PCM.

The aim is to create a unique structure that celebrates the cultural heritage of the city while also pushing boundaries and rethinking traditional approaches relating both architectural and/or urban design.
