Generator Project, White Oak, Florida (Perpsective sketch, "Spanning the Stepping Stones")

Cedric Price

1978-80

A small, energetic perspective sketch in ink, crayon, and graphite by Cedric Price that proposes modular raised platforms linked by angular walkways, imagining adaptable infrastructure rather than a fixed building.

Bold, jagged lines trace a network of pathways over chunky, shaded plinths while soft graphite smudges suggest distant trees and a red 'GENERATOR' stamp anchors the work as a project proposal.

The drawing encapsulates Price’s influential turn toward architecture as a flexible, service-oriented system, helping to open late twentieth-century design toward demountable, programmatic, and user-responsive environments.
