Linear Perspective Diagram


  • A semi 3D Diagram conducted through Photoshop by me, which portrays linear perspective in a new light, as detached from architecture but at the same time part of a universe where architecture thrives in its many forms, be them natural or man made.

"Building, Dwelling, Thinking" Heidegger- Review

Image
     In this essay of Martin Heidegger we manage to get a real glimpse on the context of the time it was written in, as well as Heidegger's own philosophy of life and beliefs. Being one of the most authentic philosophers of the 20th century, Heidegger has pursued his writing on  "Building, Dwelling, Thinking" during the wake of the shortage in housing systems after the WW2. As an existentialist himself, Martin Heidegger has devoted his philosophy to the study of being,  relating it to the relationship between thinking, dwelling and building, which he believed had been severed by the modern world. He goes on through his writings trying to re-teach us the proper way of dwelling .      The essay starts off with an explanation regarding the two-way relationship between building and dwelling. It is regarded that it is a simultaneous means-end interrelation where to build does not necessarily mean to dwell, whereas dwelling is necessarily linked to building. It is of importa

After evaluating the best informa- tion (images, drawings, videos, books) it is important to note it down and simplify it into diagrams. The next step is drawing plans, sections and eleva-

HarvardX GSD1 course assignment on Brunelleschi and perspective

Image
     Here I have decided to share some of my assignments during my online certified course "Architectural Imagination" from Harvard.  Prompt 1  :  In  one to two paragraphs , reflect on how the idea of perspective orients the viewer and helps construct  a specific understanding of the Renaissance architectural imagination .  Review the prompt and the following images of Brunelleschi's church of San Lorenzo.       While considering Brunelleschi's church of San Lorenzo we can deduce that linear perspective plays a major role on its construction. Argan analyzes the church on his essay as "a construction of a succession of imaginary planes seen in perspective from the foreground to the horizon" from which we can rightfully assume that perspective was a fundamental key of this building on Brunelleschi's mind way before it came to its final state. And from Argan's own words, this perspective which is the process we arrive to proportion, indeed dete
