The idea of temporary permanence in architecture

Abstract

the intention of this creative project, is to explore the concept of the idea of temporary permanence in architecture. the project is an attempt to put into architectural perspective an understanding, meaning and context of the relative permanence of architecture as a parallel physical and conceptual idea over time. the relationship of the various forces that shape, mold and influence the architectural environment is a major part of the natural evolution of the continuing adaptation to change within our environment. from an architectural and general outlook this means being able to understand the phenomenon of change and respecting its existence. without change the idea of temporary permanence would not exist.the paper is presented in two parts. the first part, consists of the creative project of the paper, presenting the second phase research development and the architectural exploration of the theoretical disposition, temporary permanence. the second part, found in Appendix 1, is the research paper documenting "raw data", personal observation and experience, and examples of site context as a supportive basis for the reasoning of such a disposition.
