MIT Sean Collier Memorial in #Cambridge, #Masachusetts, designed by @howeleryoonarchitecture . The structure relies on the exact fit of thirty-two stone blocks to transfer loads in pure compression from stone to stone. This didactic visualization of forces is consistent with MIT's ethos of openness and transparency, while the idea that all five walls are needed to achieve a stable form is symbolic of a community coalescing to commemorate a loss. The Memorial offers the opportunity to remember Officer Sean Collier and honor his life, service, and represent shared values: openness in the face of threat, unity through diversity, and strength through community.
