Absolute, true, and mathematical time, of itself, and from its own nature, flows equably without relation to anything external, and by another name is called duration: relative, apparent, and common time, is some sensible and external…
—Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy, Isaac Newton
Time, as with space, is something intrinsically abstract. One’s perception of space is contingent upon a certain construct that could be simultaneously mental and material. Similarly, one does not experience time itself, but clues as such indicated by the moving sun in the sky or the ticking of a clock. However, despite Kant’s attribution of space and time as formal features through which our perceptions are grounded or in scientific terms of the conception of spacetime, vocabularies concerning time in architecture has been curiously restraining in our architectural lexicon.
In light of this insufficiency, we will use the opportunity of this studio to foreground ideas of time in architecture, whether in the philosophical, scientific, or romantic sense of the term. We will begin by revisiting and looking closely at precedents concerning about time, such as Dillier and Scofidio’s Slow House and OMA’s Yokohama Masterplan. Although utilized as different conceptual frameworks, in this pair both engaged with the conceptions of time in their designs in explicit terms. By forcibly (at first at least) conceptualizing architecture not in respect of space but instead of time, the objectives of this studio would be to expand and to develop analytical tools together with design strategies in our understanding of architecture.
