Dissonant House is a project designed by M Gooden Design. A central aspect to creating a work of art that moves human emotion hinges on the opposing emotions of tension and resolution. Key components of this contrast are the concepts of dissonance and consonance. In music, composers often use dissonance to create tension and excitement, while consonance creates stability. A composer’s process of creating imbalance through dissonant chords and resolving the tension through consonance helps to create a deeply moving piece. Photography by Parrish Ruiz De Velasco.
