Clear this sample LivestockIt was not believed to be a traditional, but as an indicator of ideas. “It is usually believed that architecture is what has been built, which contains the shape, language and the possibility of analyzing it. However, there is often a discourse and culture that can be expressed through ideas (in incomplete projects), as is the case with drawing, sculpture and cinema.”

So In this sample, the interesting thing is not to show What people already know As part of its built projects – as the National School of theater Art, at Cenart or New York Public Library on Street 53, in front of Moma -,,, But show what the audience does not know“But this also has an intellectual heritage, which is very living and can be interpreted in light of what we think about and the concerns we have today.”
