After reading in class, I see how Ching sees architecture in a different way. For example, building constructions doesn’t equal to architecture. This stood out to me the mostĀ because Ching explains how not all man made construction (such as a shed or a ordinary cabin) is architecture. Architecture has a powerful meaningĀ which I find it very interesting. Also, Ching has a section in the book titled Building Systems. He explains how a architecture should be made and why. A building should protect one from weathers, can help one escape from danger hazard,Ā noise, water proof etc. Based from these readings, Ching point of view can really change one with his explanations.
