The basis of this research is a news report regarding the discovery after the restoration of the architectural office of Donald Judd, an American artist, architect, and sculptor. Donald Judd was an early proponent of minimalism, though he preferred the term «Specific Objects» to convey that the core significance of this new work was its physical existence rather than any external reference.
The architectural office stands as a prime example of Judd’s practice of repurposing existing buildings and restoring historical structures in the small Texas town of Marfa.
The building continues to serve as the architectural office and a venue for exhibiting Judd’s works, and its ideas of reinterpreting and creating a «narrative» within space find continuation in the projects of contemporary architects.
