Look up Dali and his surrealism
| The line is of man, the curve is of god |
| The straight line is the line of duty, while the curve is the path of beauty. – Fathy |
| a line is rational, a curve is spiritual |
| line is generated in the mind, the curve in the heart. |
| “Painting, through color, sculpture and form represent feelings…things that one fails to see in existing organisms. And touches the imagination of the mind, to see beyond what is usually seen. |
| Figures, trees, fruits express their interiority through their exteriority. what you see on the outside is an expression of what is inside?? |
| Therefore, it has to be governed by a law in harmony with those of nature. The architects who do not abide by this principle do odd jobs instead of a work of art.” |
| Everything comes out of the great book of nature. Is this about knowledge? is it about feelings? ekistics? |
| Can a cultural landcape have its orrigins in one mans heart? |
| Can a cultural landcape be created afresh? |
| Culture is the agent, the natural area is the medium, the cultural landscape is the result” |
Toyo Ito – Tama Art museum
| boundaries vanish through the erosion of the solid |
| “There will be the need for houses with no clear boundaries from inside to outside and from room to room,” Ito said. “What can we offer then?” – ito |
| Architecture is simply addition and subtraction |
| “From now on, human connections will be important. For example, the engawa allows for human connection with its openness.” Ito |
| the dialogue between outdoors and indoors is created using tectonics/symbolism/form/ or visual framing -the door /window is opening up to another universe ( thisuniverse is not real, its inthe heats of the user) |
| Heaviness is not created by form |
| Language |
| dialogue |
| message / phrase |
| word |
| letter |
Felix Candela- Oceanographic
whats the purpose–?
structural art-
| The form simplifys design – atmosphere/eperience/imaginaion and helps/defines/guide the function |
| the skeleton/ form can find / can be the the balance between purpose and randomness.. purposelessness.. the randomness / something done without intention |
| structural simplicity can motivate aesthetics |
Sou Fujimoto – musashino library
|
Why should a column soley work as a column, why should a bookshelf be just a bookshelf? why should a stair just be for climbing up? A friend is more than a a freind, he/she is a complete being.
|
| A worker is not just someone who get the job done, he/she is much morethan that. |
| A building is not just a machine /tool that does one job, it is much more than that. |
| A column is more than a column |
| Architecture is re-generated alongside the fundamentals of human endeavors. need rephrasing.. |
| Architecture is a cycle, or several layers |
| everything is a cycle |
| Everything can be architecture only when it can be felt |
| everything is art |
| art is everything |
| art exists only when it can be felt |
| Architecture is necessary, but how is it possible? |
| how come architecture is so necessary? |
Paul Rudoph – Yale Art and Architecture
| There is and intimate relationship between space and time. We live in an overwhelming period of time, therefore spaces should express that same thing. |
| Everything is changing (time is a driving direction), much more today than before. The problems are global, not local. As timechanges, space follows. |
| Expressing the changing landscape of education for a society in change. |
| Architecture is a complex connection of already complex mental processes. |
| Architecture is a resultant of a multitde of forces that the architect can see. As sight (knowledge) is limited, a better approach is to design not from the mind. |
| Because of the geometry of the volumes the building becomes an outdoor museum and a laberinth in the inside. |
| We walk into the future, but we dont know the direction, we cant understand the older language, nor do we know what we will speak in the future. |
| Every generation values a new perspetctive |
| Architecture becomes a labyrynth, when the layering of time is faster than the understanding of it. |
