The core interests of TAALab (Towards A new Architecture Lab) revolve around the thematic domains of 'Future,' 'Tools,' and 'Neutrality & Entelechy' within the architectural realm. The lab is dedicated to an exhaustive examination and exploration of subjects and issues about these pivotal themes, drawing insights from the spheres of humanity, architecture, urbanism, and the natural world.

​

Future:

Inevitably, novelty and divergence characterize the future. The immutable axiom that 'Everything must change' underscores the cosmic reality. Consequently, harboring skepticism towards the notion that 'The future of architecture will diverge from its past and present' presents a formidable challenge. Architectural design, rooted in its historical and contemporary contexts, is intricately intertwined with human endeavors, the evolution of architecture, urban landscapes, and nature. Nonetheless, its essence lies in the impending era.

 

Tool:

Concepts, diagrams, sketches, renderings, prototypes, 3D modeling, and Building Information Modeling (BIM) serve as instruments for prediction and visualization during architecture's conceptualization phase. However, the trajectory of architecture in forthcoming epochs hinges upon the current capabilities and limitations of these tools, which facilitate the emergence of architectural manifestations.

​

Neutrality and Entelechy:

Entelechy, the ethereal essence underlying architecture, encompasses a vast spectrum of interpretations and choices. It emanates from a state of neutrality devoid of any imposition, be it efficiency, functionality, aesthetics, stylistic preferences, or messaging. Neutrality in architecture epitomizes a versatile platform capable of accommodating diverse adaptations and interpretations, structured upon a reasoned synthesis of technical expertise and physical infrastructure.
