Thinking about the Essence of Architecture Space

The modernism architecture space concept, on the basis of the three-D rectangular cooridinate theory presented by Renel Descartes, was developed from the physical space concept of Newton's Classical Dynamics. It is man-made and separated from cooridinated physical space. There is no such space concept in the traditional architecture in which the nature of space concept is place. Heidegger elaborated the idea of architectural space from the two kinds of relations mentioned before. His idea is similar with ancient Greece space concept in nature. The essence of architecture is dwelling. This thinking provides us a way which exceeds the traditional metaphysics of the dual-opposition between object and subject, reason and anti-reason.
