So i wanted to connect the two:
Problem: A doom future of peak oil and resource depletion- architecture is only responding to either aesthetics or sustainability at the moment
Therefore: Understand what is BEAUTIFUL in architecture through neurology, how do we see beauty
Final solution: Biomimicry can link beauty/aesthetics to sustainability/function without sacrificing either one for the other. Once we understand what we find beautiful in architecture, biomimicry will answer aesthetics when only attempting sustainability.
So the problem with this is that it touches on too many ideas: Future, neurology, biomimicry, aesthetics vs function. While they're all interlinked, i don't know if i can successfully convince the reader of each element.
The sample thesis i read was simply on 'what makes great architecture' answer: 'the architect, not how the architecture fits into a specific framwork', solution 'create architecture which is best fit for the author'...of course it was written a lot better than that but with such a simplistic proposal, he was able to write sooo much.
Perhaps i should forget the sustainable element- afterall i'm only including it out of hatred towards the lameness of architecture theories.
Second proposal possibility:
Quesiton: What is a beautiful building? What makes it beautiful and successful?
Proposal: Understand beauty through neurology and realise that beauty is subjective, we appreciate architecture depending on our own experiences..
Therefore: 'beautiful' architecture is not subject to aesthetics or function, it's the expression and emotions the building gives out..?!
Final solution: ...?
Or perhaps i could simplify the first proposal so that it does not touch on the future....
Problem/problem: Aesthetics or sustainability? Often new architecture today sacrifices one for the other, having an architecture fit in often proves it self more useful for the architect than a fully sustainable building,
Therefore: Understand what is BEAUTIFUL in architecture through neurology, how do we see beauty? is beauty really limited to aesthetics?
Final solution: Beauty is how the building speaks to us...emotions bla bla. How do we approach the future of architecture? Through biomimicry....create a biometrics architecture which supports the previous ideas proved through neurology and yet opens the door to many new possibilities.
So i need to read more books, feeling very shaky about the whole biomimicry thing, what if i can't find a strong link of the two?
READ
-biomimicry, biometric,
-biomimicry, biometric,
-aesthetics of architecture, beautiful architecture
-Architecture future..
-More thesis
