Generator Project, White Oak, Florida, Plan

Cedric Price

1978-80

A lithograph plan in which Cedric Price translates a proposed "Generator" scheme into a bold, diagrammatic composition of halftone squares pierced and connected by jagged black pathways that suggest circulation, services, or energetic flows.

What hits you first is the flat, pop‑graphic contrast—the nine dotted squares in a rigid grid are aggressively sliced and striated by sharp black zigzags that read like a schematic route or electrical circuit across a neutral field.

The print exemplifies Price’s speculative, diagrammatic approach to architectural plans, treating the plan as a performative system and helping shift architectural thinking toward adaptable, infrastructure‑oriented design.
