My Architect

My Architect

I watched the first half a year ago. When I was doing my design homework recently, I suddenly wanted to revisit it. The first time I read it, I didn’t get involved in architecture. It was boring, but the second time I watched it, it gave me more is shock. The narrative of the film is mediocre, but whenever Kang's buildings are photographed, the changes in the shadows at sunrise and sunset make people unable to move their eyes and feel shocked from the depths of their hearts. If they can experience it in person, what kind of feeling would it be? Ah. The work of a great architect often has a direct impact on the soul. Suddenly, it is full of infinite longing for this profession. Architecture can have a soul.

My Architect quotes

  • Louis Kahn: A work of art... is not a living thing... that walks or runs. But the making of a life. That which gives you a reaction. To some it is the wonder of man's fingers. To some it is the wonder of the mind. To some it is the wonder of technique. And to some it is how real it is. To some, how transcendent it is. Like the 5th Symphony, it presents itself with a feeling that you know it, if you have heard it once. And you look for it, and though you know it you must hear it again. Though you know it you must see it again. Truly, a work of art is one that tells us that Nature cannot make what man can make.

  • Louis Kahn: When you want to give something presence, you have to consult nature. And there is where design comes in. If you think of brick, for instance, you say to brick, "What do you want, brick?" And brick says to you, "I like an arch." And if you say to brick, "Look, arches are expensive, and I can use a concrete lintel over you. What do you think of that, brick?" brick says, "I like an arch."

    [Students laugh]

    Louis Kahn: And it's important, you see, that you honor the material that you use. You don't bandy it around as though you said, "Well, we have a lot of material around. We can do it one way, we can do it another." It's not true. You can only do it if you honor the brick, and glorify the brick, instead of just shortchanging it.
