CRITICAL ANALYSIS ON ARCHITECTURAL THINKING



"Mistakes remembered are not faults forgot." Robert Henry Newell.Why a quote of such kind penetrates this blog!because of a shocking revelation of the critics in this blog.architectural criticism has been replaced by PRAISE showering on the architects.Many a critic in this blog are paying too much attention to the works of popular architect than the work itself.The critics here are mirroring the image of the architect upon the work itself thus a space of partiality is endowed upon the critic.A good facade and a popular architect is evoking criticism in the blogs,such has become of it.critics are tending to have an affinity towards a piece of architecture thus affecting their judgment.these mistakes are comparable to the piece of judgment taken during anger,happiness,excitement wher emotions play a major role.
Neither a building nor the architect is subjected to criticism here but the thinking itself,as thinking forms the progress of our living.Whats holding us back?Probably our emotions affecting the judgment we make.lets not be subjected to hadid's & koolhaas's rather than architecture itself.As critics we are to provide fodder to architecture & not the individual.LET NOT PHOTOGRAPHS & PHOTOGRAPHERS DEFINE ARCHITECTURE.....
