P. 27
Boundaries reflect physical and perceptual
patterns of distinguishing between things such as
a 'here and there' and a 'them and us.' But the
endurance of boundaries has much to do with
ranking and relegating. We saw that blurring the
boundaries like what happened in modernist
architecture was not a right resolve in architecture.
We have the character of outside and the
character of the inside in architecture. The efforts
to eliminate this boundary has the risk of destroying
both characters. But what if a third space come
in? A world in which one finds a draft- but more
proximate -version of the other world. Would it be
a space to prepare here to see there!? Would this
border of transition be an ambiguous place for
one to stay? A realm of impermanence for whom
trained to contemplate and reflect?
