Architecture as Receipt constructs a diagrammatic grammar that translates socio-economic forces into spatial organization. Grounded in the analysis of Grand Central Market, it traces how shifts in stall-aisle patterns register broader transformations. Through decoding and re-encoding commercial typologies, it destabilizes typology by reframing architecture as a system of continuous negotiation, where spatial order is no longer determined by program but constantly reconfigured through shifting conditions.
Architecture becomes the receipt: an index that renders these forces legible and operative, transforming retrospective de(en)coding into a projective tool for speculating on future spatial change.
