Abstract
In an education it is necessary to re-evaluate those principles which are the foundation of how one learns. Only by challenging these basic principles is it possible to prevent stagnation and to cultivate discoveries. The discoveries of this work focus on the architectural object/thing and fundamentally how it is conceived, constructed, and thought about.
This work challenges the previous education by not relying on a program, building type, human needs or context. The work attempts to apprehend and understand a basic notion about architecture. The premise is that exploration of an architectural element will lead to thoughtfully about concerns which were previously believed to be ‘generators.’
