Ordem y Forma / Louis I. Kahn - EN

ESEN

The Order is
Design is to shape in order
The form emerges from a building system
Growth is a construction
Doing things in order, creative force

Design is the medium where, how, when, with, how space reflects the nature of what it wants

An auditorium is it a Stradivarius or a ear?

An auditorium is it an instrument tuned to Bach or Bartok executed by the director, or is a conference room?

In the nature of space is the spirit and the will to exist in a certain way

The design must follow tightly that will, therefore, a horse painted stripes is not the same as a zebra. Before a train station is a building, wants to be a street, grows from the needs of a street, from the order of movement, a meeting place for glazed contours

By nature, why

Through the order, which

Through the design, how

An emerging form of structural elements that are inherent

A dome is not conceived when they raise questions about how to build

Generates an arc Nervi

Engenders a dome Fuller

Mozart’s compositions are designs

Are exercises in order intuitive

The design encourages more designs

The designs they derive their image of order

The image is the shape memory

The same order created the elephant and created man

This is different dediseños

Emerged from different aspirations

Formed from different circumstances

Beauty does not confer

The same order I think the dwarf and Adonis

Beauty is not to design

Beauty emerges from selection affinities

Arts integration is a love, a form of psychic life in order to

The order is intangible

This is a level of creative consciousness higher and higher, when higher order, more diversity in design

The integration supports order

What the space wants to be, how strange can be revealed to the architect

Order, the architect will lead the creative strength and self-criticism for shaping the strange And so the beauty will unfold …
