Architectural Synaesthesia - Prof. M. Schaut and Prof. D. Bucsescu


Architectural Synaesthesia - Prof. M. Schaut and Prof. D. Bucsescu

I am interested in the cross between sound and study.

My two areas of research has been the yeshiva and the library.

In these drawing I am looking at the different the organizations of study that are found in the yeshiva and the library and how they differ from one another.

The first drawing is of the types and how they relate to one another.

The second drawing is of the types and how thy are found in context (plan view).


(I'm having issues uploading the drwaings)




The organization of the Talmud is such that the center is the oldest and most fixed, there is a hierarchy that one can only argue with one on his level. As one moves from the center there is a layering of time and restrictiveness. This being the case, the perimeter allows for mores discussion than the center.

I want to look at this condition of center/periphery, fixed/flexible, closed/open, rigid/loose as way to organize space, program and structure.
