I was always astounded by the sights I would see whenever I traveled because I loved the history behind every structure and the design it possessed.
I was always fond of museums and aesthetically designed houses that incorporated minimalist features.
All this appreciation from architecture stemmed from my mom's love for design and her life-long dream of building her own house. Every time she'd go for oculars at different houses, I'd be more than willing to come for the reason that I was always intrigued by the design of houses.
Architecture was simply designing structures for me, whether it be houses, museums, public malls, etc. My view was limited to the design alone.]]> 2019-02-22 02:20:25 UTC https://padlet.com/regina_alegre/9763fcvkemuo/wish/333992914 regina_alegre https://padlet.com/regina_alegre/9763fcvkemuo/wish/333992974 After discussing the module, I realized that there's so much more to understand about Architecture, which are the following:
1. The Humanistic background
2. Form and Content
3. "Form follows function" (and functionality relating to Beauty) and
4. Organic Architecture
All these concepts allowed me to understand more than just my preconceived notion of architecture being limited to design, but aligning this thought with meaning: Architecture is a process that works to integrate all elements to capture a meaningful whole in its form, going beyond its reason being merely to fulfill its function, but to exist as beautiful. Architecture allows for structures to add beauty to our communities improving the quality of life of all human life.]]> 2019-02-22 02:20:40 UTC https://padlet.com/regina_alegre/9763fcvkemuo/wish/333992974 regina_alegre https://padlet.com/regina_alegre/9763fcvkemuo/wish/333993028 In time, I would like to learn about the historical actors of architecture. The ones who came up with various architecture styles and ultimately aligned purpose with every aspect of their work.
Bobby Mañosa serves as a prominent figure for architecture in the Philippines for finding ways to reflect our nation in its structures.
I hope to learn more about architects who placed meaning into their structures, which in turn created the known styles we have today. ]]> 2019-02-22 02:20:56 UTC https://padlet.com/regina_alegre/9763fcvkemuo/wish/333993028
