Abstract
This article examines the work of Mathias Goeritz (1915–1990) as a counterexample to current modes of architectural production. His project for the experimental museum “El Eco” is particularly relevant since it was generated almost entirely from a single conceptual drawing. Goeritz's architectural work was influenced by his practice as a sculptor using space (and void) as his primary building material, modeling the immaterial to create places designed to elicit emotional responses. The conclusion argues that Goeritz's nonobjective architectural work offers alternative design methodologies that serve to reconcile the dualistic opposition between the material and the immaterial.
