\nThe Way We Look at Things
\n<\/strong>How we observe our surroundings shifts in response to changes in systems, perspectives, or even misconceptions. This project investigates spatial tension by measuring an abandoned building. Through this process, I aim to capture its invisible dimensions, contrasting them with its existing ruin. This reinterpretation reveals the hidden narratives and unknown spaces embedded within the ruins.<\/p>\n

I believe the enjoyment derived from architecture might result from two primary sources. Firstly, architecture brings aesthetics, an emotional response linked to intuition. Secondly, enjoyment may also emerge from comprehension. After individuals understand an architectural entity’s context and order, it imparts a sense of intellectual fulfillment.<\/p>\n

This project is developed in three distinct stages. Initially, based on hand drawing, photography, or photogrammetry, it attempts to approach the essence of the ruin. Next, following an investigative trajectory, I reconstruct the ruins using sections to reorganize them by a relative motion system. This perspective offers an alternative view of the architecture, transforming its essence and potentially challenging existing interpretations. Finally, a series of drawings articulate the findings and explain the reorganized object’s nature, reflecting the understanding and the pleasure derived from architecture.
