The concept of Place

Undoubtedly, 20th century's architecture has a tendency to be more geometrical, playing of forms. Overlooking the ancient time, there is a huge contrast between now and before. Things had become even worst which i wonder if technology will take over architecture, becomes the prior consideration of forming place in the future.

A place which is said to be a known space in conjunction with architecture and context, which only probably a good dwelling environment. That's very true, for the whole universe, everything must be interacting with each other, isolated one will not being appreciated. Interaction of people brings pleasure to human, so does the surroundings.

However, transforming of this era to be more advance had brought significant changes to the lifestyle, in consequence designer must also take it into account while designing whatever building, products, transport, telecommunication and etc. Talking about architecture, i personally oppose the thought of mobile life.

No matter how splendid one is, human has basic needs, including a place so called "home". There is no such thing that what New Babylon says: "everybody will be travelling and never feel the need to return to the place of origin". There is a song of Michael Buble. "Another summer day had coming gone away, in Paris and Rome, but i wanna go home. Maybe surrounded by a million people but i still feel all alone, i just wanna go home" It interprates people's internal feeling that even they might having a luxury life out there, away from their origin, the feeling of home will never been forgotten.

The principle will never changed, though the environment might be changing with the time. A secure at-one-point personal dwelling is worth to be remained, however the existential spaces can be altered to fulfill people's satisfaction.

There are more and more challenges coming to architect in order to build a good building in conjunction with the site, context, meanwhile in trend. How do people define a good piece of architecture will be causing a lot of hassles as how people perceive the transforming of the world.
