JA 47- Material/Scale: Process
of Design
The materials selected by a designer profoundly affect the
outcome of his design labour, as does the actual design process, which
is itself shaped by the character of those materials. The
problem-solving actions of that process leave their mark on the
completed spaces and architectural forms, and are apparent in the
architecture, at various dimensions of scale. Works included in this
issue are by Toyo Ito & Associates and Foreign Office Architects.

Masters of Light: First Volume Twentieth-Century Pioneers
Plummer
H.
”The revolution in thought & feeling that gave rise to modernity
transformed not only the form & space of our buildings, but their
mood & atmosphere as well, manifesting a sensibility for light as
well as a fresh understanding of people as metaphysical beings.
Envisioned in art as well as science was a new kind of light, whose
living energy could resonate inside an active, mobile, reflective
subject, & change the human body & min, providing for the
pioneers of twentieth-century architecture an expanded field of
human perception, & a medium to recover the spiritual dimensions of
life in a modern age” Henry Plummer JA Japan 2003PB
