House & Home from a Theoretical Perspective
Architecture has thousands of definitions and who can dare to claim that only one of them may represent the absolute truth about our constructed environment. But it seems that human life with all its instances and dimensions can be defined as the very core of architecture. At least, both daily life and other possible general definitions of living are to generate one of the most crucial grounds of architectural production. Whereas the relationship between concreteness of human life and space can be described on different levels and around different types of building, the concept of house is to form an ideal junction point to discuss the personal, cultural, ideological and aesthetical dimensions of architecture.Especially, the house of the classical modern can be defined as a ground that crystallizes the necessities of an new age and the productive responses towards it. In the 21th century, too, the house, as a constructed object and home, as its personalized expression, will play a crucial role while thinking about the correlation of space and human being.
ARCHTHEO '12 Conference hits the road focusing mainly on "House & Home" on the basis of theory of architecture. The international conference will take place between October 31 and November 3 in Istanbul, Turkey. Being hosted by MSGSÜ (Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University) and with the organizational partnership of DAKAM (Eastern Mediterranean Academic Research Center) ARCHTHEO '12 will bring together wide-ranging multidisciplinary approaches from scholars and architects to discuss architectural theory within the frame of "House&Home".
