Open the Box - Rendered Whiteness - The Housing Prototype...

 

The readings “Open the Box”, “Rendered Whiteness”, and “The Housing Prototype of the Institute for Architecture and Urban Studies” all complement and expand on the concepts and theories presented last week. About creating a connection between architecture and society and how these ideologies are each individually effected by the environments cultural and their influence.

 

To began, the reading from this week stipulates that architecture is not just a decorative commodity, but instead how architecture influences humanity at a neurological level. That we are effected by it in ways that don’t even register as a thought but instead as an emotion, more specifically our sexually arousel. How the agenda and relationship between humanity and architecture change with the times and advancements of technology. Architecture is then theorized on the tactics used on a grander scale and how architecture can impact society on a massive scale. Then becoming a tool to identify social classes, thus the birth of the “American Dream” that having a family, owning a home, and working is the climax of happiness., that home is where the heart is.
