Draft 1- proposal

It's rather difficult to come up with a perfect or near perfect abstract/intro to what i want to do when i've on read a few books, i only know so much, so i can only propose so much. I'm running out of time.


draft 1:


Keywords: beauty in architecture, aesthetics, personality, neurology, different famous architects, different times in architectural history, architecture impact on lives,


 How does the human brain identify what 'beauty' is in architecture and how can 'beautiful' architecture forms express  emotions or moods? 
Architecture is a multisensory art and requires to be understood on more than just visual terms, it must not only take into account of the other senses but also the effects of being human. [ie. emotions, memory, compassion, symapthy]


This thesis will investigate the individual ideas of 'beauty' as understood by numerous famous architects such as Zaha Hadid & Frank Gehry, explore the challeges to the various intellectual and cultural movements that inform how people create and look at architecture, then through neurology and psychology- determine how we, as humans really identify the complex and personal concept of beauty. 
Through this research, I hope to create an personified, multisensory architectural form with the capacity to affect the deepest reaches of my existence. 


hmm...O_O


The proposal seems a bit far fetched. I think i will go with that for now, i have become weary of all the reading, so i thought i'd 'put my foot down' so to speak and write something! I really hope that this can be used as a loose idea that we base our final idea on - [ the idea i hope to derive to WITH a supervisor]
