The Prostor Series establishes spatial relations determined by combinations of a given set of pre-designed modules on a randomly variable lattice. The shape of the composition as well as that of the internal partitions, is a rectangle with sides apportioned according to the Fibonacci series. The idea was to implement a balanced interplay between the deterministic and random parts to create a particular kind of spatial ambiguity.
