     summary: Rick Fox’s “A New Interpretative Taxonomy” is a textbook example of epistemic inquiry, which delineates common positions within popular architecture discourse: the singularist, constructivist, and contextualist. The initial issues will explore the boundaries of writing on architecture philosophy and, in the process, begin to show what the key questions, positions, and disagreements amongst architecture philosophers are.

      flesch: 46
     summary: isparchitecture.com Monism and Pluralism: The History of Aesthetics and the Philosophy of Architecture - Part I Paul Guyer I. Monism and Pluralism in the Early History of Aesthetics One way to think about the history of aesthetics since its inception as a properly named subdiscipline of philosophy in the early eighteenth century is to think of it as a debate about the right way to understand the relations among the terms of the Neo-Platonist triad comprised by the true, the good, and the beautiful: do these terms designate three separate domains of human interest, the theoretical, the practical and moral, and the aesthetic, the boundaries between which must be sharply defined and maintained, or do they designate three aspects of human experience that can and should be fused in practice, indeed do they suggest that the distinctive function of art among human activities is precisely to fuse our natural love of beauty with our theoretical and moral concerns, to provide a kind of unity in human experience that we otherwise do not find?1 Immanuel Kant might be thought to be the foremost of separatists rather than synthesizers in the modern history of aesthetics: his definition in the “Analytic of the Beautiful” in the Critique of the Power of Judgment of the “judgment of taste” as “aesthetic,” where that means that it is neither cognitive nor practical, that on the one hand “In order to decide whether or not something is beautiful, we do not relate the representation by means of understanding to the object for cognition”2 and that on the other hand “The agreeable, the beautiful, and the good...designate three different relations of representations to the feeling of pleasure and displeasure,” that “One can AP . Kant’s position in aesthetics is actually more complicated than these opening remarks suggest: they are part of an initial analysis of the simplest experience of beauty, but by no means a complete statement of his account of art, a fortiori of architecture.

     summary: Conversely, it seems, then, that Utopia holds out a potential resolution to the problem of renewed purpose and relevance for architecture, fortifying it to act against the solvent of capitalism, the very same condition that inspired most of the doomed attempts at architectures of autonomy in the first place. Intriguingly, the idea of freedom that best describes a wide range of autonomy projects in architecture is transcendental (in the sense of being a priori or preternatural), rather than empirical (in the sense of being experiential or pragmatic).8 In this regard, perhaps the opposition ought to be more simply stated as the ‘pure’ as opposed to the ‘impure’, which in terms of Utopia could be indicated as the difference between the ‘abstract’ (transcendental) and the ‘concrete (empirical).

       words: 1683
      flesch: 43
     summary: Its final proposal allocates to architecture a much greater role in framing and deciding philosophical questions than any (certainly recent) philosophers have been willing to accord it. Hence, for an overview of the more longstanding areas of philosophical interest, as well as some introduction to recent events in those areas, Philosophy of Architecture does what a good “little handbook” should do: it presents the fields in such a way that a reader with a budding interest in these matters can delve into them further with the confidence that there is, in fact, a field to delve into.

However, when looking at the region where the B2 House was built—Büyüksun—many buildings imitate local traditional buildings by using local materials.

      flesch: 42
     summary: It is argued that there are four categories of things that can be said about architecture: construction, style, use, and ideology, and that a difficulty of architecture theory is the possible unification of these categories. The modernist program of the early twentieth century and its continuation in architecture theory of our time can be defined as the effort to provide an aesthetic rationale for an industrial process of production and then to amplify this aesthetic program within a fitting social ideology: concrete is an industrial construction tool.

     summary: Semiotics was, at that moment, a central concern in architectural culture, and many authors sought to develop an approach to architecture that could go beyond the functionalism and rationalism of the modern movement. Scruton understands ‘theory’ as prescriptive: “architectural theory consists in the attempt to formulate the maxims, rules and precepts which govern, or ought to govern, the practice of the builder”

In a collection dedicated to the human in architecture, Draculić’s “eternity” offers, I believe, a poignant point of departure.

     summary: If we wish to give an accurate account of the various types of buildings (as was our intention) and of their constituent elements, our whole method of investigation must open and begin here, by considering human variety in greater detail; since buildings arose on man´s account, and for his needs they vary; so that they may be dealt with more clearly by distinguishing their individual characteristics.2 For Alberti, only if the individuality of human beings is taken as the starting point, can architecture fulfil its social role; and only then do we understand the task of architecture properly.3 Good architecture and good cities care for both society and individual human beings; but the individual must come first. Questioning the Relationship of Architecture and Philosophy”, Karsten Harries considers the mutual inspiration of philosophy and architecture, their relationship and their mutual contributions to one another.

     summary: Therefore, modal logic encompasses design propositions (with respects to certain rules or styles) and it is useful in design predictions. If it is indeed the case that a world view on design theory can be grown out of these “seed questions” as Galle proposes, then one must be first fully engaged with them by recognising the aporia.38 I agree with Galle that these questions are “not to be shrugged off ”, as he says.39 Furthermore, it seems to me that they are fundamental for any design theory.

Significantly, Kristeva credits Georges Bataille as the first philosopher to have “specified that the plane of abjection is that of the subject/ object relationship (and not subject/other subject).”6 As such, the earliest beginnings of the subject involve an extraction not from other subjects, but what will become objects: Do we not find, sooner (chronologically and logically speaking)

     summary: Tracing the nascent development of the philosophical field of architectural ethics, it is clear that philosophical discussion locates social responsibility with the individual architect as a moral agent--a stance confirmed both by the comments of professional architects, and by the reluctance of the AIA to assume any responsibility for the ethical conduct of its members beyond the standard professionalism of business ethics. Architects encounter moral dilemmas in everyday practice, in designing buildings to address clients’ briefs.

According to Vidler, “[in the Arnhem prison project] we find echoes of a reading of Michel Foucault, whose studies of discipline and power have strongly influenced the politics and strategies of the generation of OMA.”, and it is “in the space marked by Foucault after the crossing streets cut the all-seeing eye, the pan-optikos.

     summary: In a reference to Immanuel Kant, in her book Lectures on Kant’s Political Philosophy, she refers to his idea of enlarged thought.4 For Arendt, this idea is a model of political practices, which testifies that her conception of pluralism is in fact inscribed in the horizon of an intersubjective agreement. Since all forms of political identities entail a “we/them” distinction, this means that the possibility of emergence of antagonism can never be eliminated.

     summary: Every construction, every action of ours has value, a political essence, which must be read between the lines of what is there…in architecture in particular, the first thing it entails is to seduce others so that they can see the dimensions of what, despite the circumstances we must do.8 Among the architects practicing in São Paulo over the last half of the 20th century there has perhaps been no figure who has been more aware of the profound challenges posed by the São Paulo megalopolis, now covering a 45 isparchitecture.com million square kilometers with a population of 30 million people, than Paulo Mendes da Rocha. This achievement was echoed in 2017 by the realization of another SESC complex within the São Paulo megalopolis; the so-called SESC 24 de Maio built to the designs of the late Paulista architect Paulo Mendes da Rocha, who collaborated with one of his former pupils, Maria Moreira, a founding partner in the practice, MMBB.

If citizens of all backgrounds and housing settings have rights to flourishing in the city, as entails a further right to public safety, then we have identified some level of responsibility for realizing such rights as may be apportioned to architectural agents.

     summary: Concurrently, an examination of other theoretical discourses concerning new architecture in historic and sensitive environments can inform a critical perspective on the subject. From the point of view of philosopher Hans Georg Gadamer’s theory of hermeneutics, new architecture in a historic setting can generate multiple interpretations, which are constantly regulated by what a setting has been in the past, and what it wants to be, by means of the architecture of the new intervention.

     summary: Furthermore, we can see empathy as a skill that can be enriched: the aforementioned studies on healing environments, for instance, may be too specific to be implemented directly into other designs, but they provide insights that can be integrated into empathic processes, as do the theories on cognitive science of architectural experience. So, it is through this system and its integration with other systems that we can talk about concepts or messages that are communicated by architecture, based on their physical composition and the actions, both practical and emotional, that they make possible.

     summary: First step: Walking in Bernardo(’s) Sandals Challenging what he criticized as the straitjacket of fashion, in 1946 the architect, designer, and author Bernard Rudofsky launched the line of footwear Bernardo Sandals. One Fig 1: Bernard Rudofsky, Plan of the Procida House project published in Domus, Issue 123 (March 1938) 173 isparchitecture.com such example (which he describes in a later book) are the Neolithic houses in Lindenthal, Germany discovered in the early decades of the twentieth century, and which reveal to Rudofsky a methodical architectural strategy that is neither accidental nor clumsy.42 Central to their design is the sculpted floor that celebrates the intimate encounter of the body with the earth and, as the authors infers, situates the individual in a specific horizon of inhabitation: What lifts the Lindenthal houses above the commonplace is their sculpted floor.

     summary: A full- blown defense of these sub-rights is beyond the present scope; here I note a few definitional points and take note of one common denominator relative to urban public space. One ought not to penetrate this little portion of city space, as it is now walled off and occupied.

     summary: In absence of any certainty or promising outlook in the face of the expiry date of Hong Kong’s status as Special Administration in 2047 and following a severe loss of trust in their government to uphold and defend the rights of Hong Kong citizens stipulated in the Basic Law, the radical branch of Hong Kong protesters took a momentous step to withdraw themselves from the established order and governmental care to fight for their own vision of political justice. They became invisible to the authorities’ cameras and face recognition software yet remained highly visible to Hong Kong citizens looking up from the streetscape, over from adjoining walkways or down from office and residential towers.

     summary: Nevertheless, those who are interested in the relation of ethics to architecture-as-architecture – or architecture qua architecture – will protest that these are not the sorts of examples that need to be explored. And, furthermore, that purpose is external to the practice of architecture qua architecture.
