Sacred and Profane




Sometime, the human create a symbol and architecture for agent of something and all was built to remember the meaning when we see them.

Temple and church are simple example that can tell the meaning of previous text. Buddhist temple and the Christian church, the both architectures have been created to mediate between people and religious leaders. Also the human was make subconscious that respect, admire and think that the architecture is sacred. And wrong, if people build for residential building may be some people think, it is disparage and profane because for people, especially Asian people think the religion is very delicate.


But, in my opinion, I think it is not wrong if we use some element of Temple or church for decorate our house, but it must be done under good intention, not need to disparage religion. And I think that use some element for decoration. It is that expression, we respect and love in the religion.

Empty form & using space


In my opinion, empty form can create using space which other space have a different function, depend on we choose to use it such as a white space in the gallery, it is open space and look like empty but in real it not empty because it have specific ability for specific function such as space for show artwork, sculpture or space for exhibition that want flexibility of space for respond many type of usability.

So I think the index which tells that empty form is not the empty space is program. Because program can tell that this space made for or changing for and what that function of it.
