The city is approached not as narrative but as condition, formed by repetition, alignment, and regulation.
Across the three cities, structure operates through distinct mechanisms: externalized in New York, stratified in London, internalized in Tokyo. Architectural and institutional structures remain persistent, while human presence is gradually regulated and reduced.
An indigo-toned palette suppresses warmth and immediacy, shifting perception toward distance and spatial order.
Structure remains.
Presence recedes.
