ONE POINT PERSPECTIVES & THEORY
Theory --> I sourced my article from ArchDaily, which focuses on Hiroshi Sambuichi's architectural philosophy
https://www.archdaily.com/873169/hiroshi-sambuichi-architecture-begins-with-water-air-and-sun'
Hiroshi Sambuichi's architectural philosophy --> architecture should work in harmony with the environment so that it becomes a natural part of the Earth
KEY WORDS (from the article/ video interview in the article)
[ organic, elements (of nature), harmony, manipulation ]
- organic forms
- primary concern is to utilise natural resources
- minimise the environmental impact of architecture that is built
- withstands the test of time
- air and wind movement is encouraged by the shapes of the building
- uses all the elements of nature (water, fire, earth, air) to influence design
why? ---> if we cant sustain the environment there will be no earth left to design for
sustainability, humbling human's opinion's or sense of entitlement
