Architecture Through My Eyes

Más información sobre el libro

Reflections on the architectural world often provoke intriguing questions during a first visit to a city, leading to the rediscovery of fundamental values through the experience of architecture and the unique genius of each place. This work records an architectural journey through countries known for their historical architecture, such as Austria, the Netherlands, Germany, and Japan. Unlike typical architectural writings, the author shares personal experiences with notable architectural objects and cities. The author explores various topics, including cities, architecture, architects, and the distinctiveness of their works, influences, and historical styles. Photographs of architectural works are presented in a unique way that critiques both the structures and the cities. The author employs methods used by architectural historians, including the "architectural pilgrimage method," to document observations made during city-to-city expeditions. Through in situ research, which encompasses the experience of space, time, dimensions, and distances, a distinctive spirit is infused into these writings. This work aims to inspire young architectural historians to engage more actively in the discussion of architectural history and criticism globally.
