The Possibility of an Absolute Architecture.
The Possibility of an Absolute Architecture by Pier Vittorio Aureli is very subjective. Architecture makes sense within the social, political and cultural dimension. It is represented through the ideal appearance of the built environment. In the title he has used the word absolute which refers to the marked boundary of a city. Urbanization for most architects is interchangeable, but for him it is a fundamental phenomena which is the division and confrontation. The act of division and being divided in architecture shows the core of a city. It is a form of ethos and subjectivity of the city. The author goes back to four architects: Andrea Palladio, Giovanni Battista Piranesi, Etienne Louis-Boullee …show more content…
It argues about the idea of nature which many fade away in the state of ecology. The thought of nature comes between ecological structure of art, philosophy, culture and politics. While writing this book he was living in the woods and his house was almost a mile away from the neighbor. He figured that there are six major elements that play an important part, which are rendering, the medial, the timbral, the Aeolian, tone and the re-mark.

In my opinion it would be a much polluted city. Even though we are quiet progressing in that direction, we are not there yet. The city would have had no boundaries, artificial lighting, etc. In a world where we are trying to go back to the natural way of living, not completely but in some ways (reduce, recycle and reuse), this would just make us more and more dependent of natural resources which are getting used up in high quantities.
