Diagram Architecture

see Response (Diagrams Matter by Stan Allen) A plot architecture is not necessary an architecture produced through with(predicate) diagrams. Instead, diagram architecture is an architecture that behaves like a diagram, indifferent to the specific meaner of its realization. (Par. 13) This paragraph points out the dissolvent that beginners architecture students struggled to find. In the process of design, I try to find the potential through the translation from ingenuousness to the abstract diagram.While I wonder if the architecture should carefully be developed room the compend the images representing the ingrained information. Comparing the disceptation of Stan Allen to the analysis project for this semester, I realized, the diagrams give us the chance to study and give rise in a special way by not duplicating what is already given. Since nothing can tuck architecture without having been first converted into graphic form, the actual mechanism of graphic conversion is fun damental. In my opinion, the implement of diagram does not describe the actual object but shows the relationship between different elements or technique that was used to mom up with one simple design idea. Most students in architecture usually struggle to make an efficient diagram to show things such as innovation, process and analysis drawing. Thinking about the feature of diagram, the visual character is to represent the simplicity of an object.To me, it meaner the diagram is abstract gibe to represent the idea and the process of design. But Stan Allen defines the diagram as the organization, description of potential relationships among elements, not lonesome(prenominal) an abstract model of the way things behave in the world but a map of attainable orals. (Par. 1) And these possible worlds became full of invisible images and information opposing to materiality of buildings.In this invisible time, the diagram has potential to be efficient method as well as strong tool in arc hitecture because a diagrammatic practice locates itself between the actual and the virtual. Stan Allen argues and states a lot of architects portfolios, theory and practice who do use diagrams to create architecture. He does believe they are not Just a single statement but rather they are transposing ideas rather than translating them. We generate diagrams to create new ideas.He even goes as furthest as dividing the diagrams into stages of generating ideas, to communicate. Overall, diagramming helps to gather all information/data that surround a project, compare relationships and lay hold of (on new information that might help to design effectively. The most difficult bridge to cross is applying ones diagram and relationship to the overall design. From this reading, I am convinced diagrams helps to manipulate information to symbols to understand the basic concept of a design.
