“We are constantly in the process of making choices about our future. It is of benefit to us in seeing who we are today, to reflect on our past. In today’s culture where things are easily forgotten, to know who you are and what you should be doing, you have to first know what your history is” (August Wilson)

This practice of applying conceptual metaphorical thinking in design as a mediator gives rise to deepening an understanding of time and duration towards intentional longevity.  A propositional temporal system of design connects our past to our present and contributes to an understanding of decisions and of choices made transforming the way in which we inhabit time.
