Japanese architect Arakawa and American architect Madeline Gins believed fucking shit up was good for longevity.
They designed the Bioscleave House in New York -
"Ceilings and entranceways extend across varying directions and heights, either along straightened or curved edges. Similarly, windows and light switches are strewn along the walls at inconsistent heights. Arakawa and Gins firmly believed it was integral for domestic environments to be constructed in layouts that rendered residents with a sense of instability and discomfort. "
