What Makes a Building Truly Poetic Architecture? (Slideshow)
| |
Poetic architecture taps into that moment when architecture transcends itself, when it becomes more than simply a physical space — and exudes to a sense of place and beauty that words cannot often describe. Thus, I put together the following slideshow to explore the issue of poetic architecture, to get your mind thinking of how to make more out of your work, and to become more aware of the poetics which surround you — so such poetic thinking will come more readily to you while you design.
Thus, each photograph within the slideshow below represents an answer to the following question:
What Makes a Building Truly Poetic Architecture?
-
- When It Inspires You To Preserve It (as a Photograph)
-
- When it Humbly Taps Into Your Emotion
-
- When it Becomes a Symbol for a Country.
-
- When it Makes a Statement about What’s Inside
-
- When its Details are Sensitive to Human Scale + Senses
-
- When It Presents Itself As a New Form of Beauty
-
- When Its Proportions are Balanced Perfectly
