| The intent of this paper is to approach the process of designing as the road of
an architectural work appearing through the dialectics between methodologies for the
conception of architectural forms on the one hand and interpretation of an idea on the
other.
The paper works on one methodological step that refers to the incitement of research in
the education of an architect. In modern practice, there are numerous flaws that refer to
a clear direction in the designing process, a lack of a unified research methodology and
in general a lack of a wide theoretical frame. The papers point of view is based on the
theoretical settings by Emanuel Kant that in using the term Genius as a metaphor, alludes
to an undefined strength of the creative power found in the concupiscent. More precisely,
the paper discusses the development and the establishment of frames that incite
researchers-designers, directing them towards a sensual cognition of various accents of
the context that is used to explicitly accept the values (the good and the bad) by paying
attention to the epistemological questions that include knowledge, its nature and forms,
the road of its acquest and its notice, and further to ontological questions that refer to
relations among people and people towards the world.
This oscillating relation, complicated and contradictory, represents a sort of a medium
towards architecture. In connecting the named apportionments, the paper tends to
approach the process of creating an architectural work to enhance comprehension,
relation, and finally – the use of space. |
