碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 建築研究所 === 98 === “...And this is essetial to being an architect. It is not enough to just be good at designing, thinking space, volume and form, or being very good at science, a man of science, but also it‘s also very important to be socially comfortable, socially motivated. And those years between 62-64, between those years for me was the time when I built up a lifetime of personal experiences which I call intellectual curiosity and social interest. And this is essential, because you know, I keep saying, „Architecture is like an iceberge,„ and the visible part is very little, but all the part below is the one that makes architecture, and the part below is society, anthropology, history, geography, climatology, science, sociology. All these are there. Without that part pushing up, architecture does not exist. So, it is pure academism.” -RENZO PIANO, World Architects in their Twenties, 1999 TRANSFORMATION RENZO PIANO said „..but all the part below is the one that makes architecture,... Without that part pushing up, architecture does not exit.„ However, I think that the concept of „transformation„ is the connection between them. Architect should make the below part suit to architecture and the method is „transformation“. Different transformations make the architecture different style. They must be accumulated by time then they will be more integrated, otherwise they are just only fragments. So far, in the period of the university, I just develope 4 different transformations: digital, urban, art, and histroy. I will continue this work in future period of my life.
