The Dialogue with Nature
“Design that embraces nature is the last solution for Architecture worldwide
and architects need to hear the dialogue of nature, hear all the different
materials and forms relating to one another.”
In the modern world, architectural design that incorporates nature will be
invited into our living space, encouraging an optimum lifestyle that enhances
our creativity to live perfectly. In order for Architecture to be fused with
nature, the architect should respond to the provided environment and use
the available methods and materials. This design process serves a multi-
dimensional purpose; it not only beautifies the physical Architecture of
buildings, but also is environmentally friendly, biologically healthy, reduces
air pollution, promotes a positive psychology in human life, and supports
sustainability.
I have chosen to focus this theme on “Architecture & Landscape: The
Dialogue with Nature” and to illustrate my vision on this topic with the help
of an image in Cappadocia, Turkey.
In order to expand the range of topics, while focusing on a necessary
understanding of this current trend of ‘design with nature’, I have invited
a group of notable individuals comprising of architects and art researchers
to achieve a positive impact and introduce 2A Magazine as a professional
architectural reference.
As I have indicated above, when architects start to create the form, space and
design using nature, the socially responsible will also accept and it will turn
into a culture and lifestyle. Therefore, this issue not only aspires to identify
and focus on projects in this field, but also plans to be spread and accepted
by architects as the only architectural method. Of course, it could act as the
source of inspiration for all other architectural methods as well.
