Connections, Taku Sakaushi

El jueves 23 de julio el arquitecto Taku Sakaushi ofrecerá* la conferencia, titulada Connections, presentada por el también arquitecto Enric Massip-Bosch.


Kazuo Shinohara, as he designed Fissure Space, wrote that although Fissure Space looks like it disconnects spaces on both sides, in fact it creates a connection between those spaces. That`s true indeed. It is normally thought that continuity between two points should be stronger with nothing in between than with something. If there is something it breaks the continuity. 

But is that true? Although physically it seems true, psychologically it is not always true. It could be said that something between two spaces sometimes could work as the device which connects them. 

Isn't architecture something that attains this kind of connection? 
Isn't it the main role of architecture to connect people with people, people with things and things with things?


Taku Sakaushi, nacido en Tokio, es arquitecto y doctor en investigación arquitectónica por la Universidad de Shinsu y profesor de la Universidad Científica de Tokio. Recientemente ha obtenido el Premio internacional otorgado por el Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design para su última obra en Japón, la Pine Gallery en Mito.
