For most architects, the effective design of three‐dimensional space in two‐dimensional media remains an ongoing conundrum. Kazuhiro Kojima , the founding partner of the C+A Tokyo (CAt) office, describes how he set out to tackle this through his creation of the pioneering Space Block system at the Kojima Laboratory in the Tokyo University of Science in 1994, a design tool that could capture and extract space. He describes its application and refinement in the development of two ensuing systems: Existing Space Blocks (ESBs) and Basic Space Blocks (BSBs).
