Architecture becomes A site for the endless reconstructions of nature
But these reconstructionsLack the naturalistic historicism of their eighteenth century or More recent antecedents.
Through architecture, nature appears As a production of the city
Nature’s contemporary reality
But also as an act of recovery.

VILLA DALL’AVA: A BUILDING IN TIME

Glass Block Wall, Horiuchi HouseOsaka, Japan Tadao Ando 1977-1978
If concrete walls are used as rock and glass as
the opening of a cave, Tadao Ando chose
to make the experience of someone standing
inside the house looking out – and vice-versa –
a little more sophisticated. He erected a wall
made entirely out of glass blocks,
letting light in but distorting any
visual information it carries. The wall forms a
distinction between interior and exterior
without completely separating them – letting
the house belong in its street and allowing
privacy at the same time.
Glass Block Wall, Horiuchi HouseOsaka, Japan Tadao Ando 1977-1978
People explored the effect light since the beginning
of mankind, when they painted animals on dark
rocks and observed the lit exterior showing from the
entrance of a cave. It is a declaration of might
–proving the ability to control light. This control is
the concept behind Glass Block Wall.
The human eye catches information carried
by light and interprets it into visual images. Light and
darkness are two extremes and the gradient between
them allows the distinction of forms and colours.
Light can be distorted, refracted, reflected, or
blocked by various means such as heat, water, or
man-made devices like lenses and mirrors to
complicate or simplify the way objects appear.

an end-less pro-ject of de-struction and rene-wal.
The architects had the builders gather all the demolition debris into a huge pile in the centre of the pro-ject. It looked like a mountain of demolition and construction waste, but it became a
central feature of the housing estate’s landscape. It holds the history of the site, in some ways, while providing a tangible image of what modernity is all about — an endless project of destruction and renewal.

Today, the architectural reconstrution of nature continues and intersects with themes of late
modern environmentalism but this is not at all obvious.
Natures appear at new modern scale that the literal imagery
seemed disconnected from the natural and architectural
representation.
The reconstruction of nature is an aspect of the history; architecture can be positioned to build nature
into forms that engage with problems of pass history and
representation to form an interesting perspective.
