This is your public profile, to edit it click here or view your hidden cabinet to modify or upload designs.About Babak Abdolghafari Atelier : In this cataclysmic world of today and among the crowd’s illusion of being knowledgeable, he based his approach on things that ‘are not ‘and not those that ‘are‘.
This return is a return to another world,
a familiar one,
simple, but deep,
in which man, as a pivot in the form of a tall standing cypress – but left and abandoned - is seeking his lost place.
He sees profession in this way;
it seems that the architect deals with three things:
human, earth, and design, which is the medium.
All concentration is on one question: How could the responsibility of ‘being human’ be taken while man has not truly understood.
1. Human, firstly, as an Artifex and then, the user with all of its complicated psychic phases and hidden layers within;
2. Earth – and place as its representative, which is the scaled macrocosm and house as a womb embracing the human;
3. And design, which is a decision based on consciousness by accepting one and rejecting many.
These are personal criteria for ‘what is not architecture’ and it refuses to claim, ‘what is architecture.’
