The human form of Architecture –Recipes for wellbeing and happiness
The talk discusses the deep, spiritual essence of architecture, emphasizing its role in shaping human well-being and happiness. Architecture begins as a form derived from human dreams and desires, making the invisible tangible. It’s true significance is realized when it transforms plans into completed buildings, which create an atmosphere to be experienced by the senses.
At its core, architecture responds to essential human needs and reflects the art of existence. It fosters community well-being and has an ethical dimension, aiming to elevate life and strengthen justice, especially for the marginalized. However, architecture can also be used as a tool for power and control, which may have a negative impact on communities.
Modern construction could be criticized for being overly commercialized, neglecting the well-being of individuals. True architecture, on the other hand, strives to create a "complete human form," a balanced and harmonious design that serves society and promotes interaction. Ultimately, the most impactful architecture emerges when it embodies the qualities of goodness, truth, and beauty.
