Abstract

The evolution of science involves a continual shift in perspectives concerning the relationship between humankind and the environment. When considering the changing architectural styles and movements that have accompanied this progress, it is entirely natural to discern a constant recapitulation of models and proportions. The reinvention or rewriting of forms, languages and dimensional structures gives rise to alterations that act upon the pre-existing order; each time a model is reformulated, a new interpretative angle opens up, the perspective from which it is observed is altered, and with it the very way in which the entire system is understood. From these variations emerge new cultural landscapes, new readings of space, and new currents of thought and design.
