"No individual building in particular can be the answer to all problems, but all the buildings together, the city,the urban and rural environment will serve and contain the flexible,the changing, the temperamental and growing needs of humanity as a whole." Emerson IThe intention of this creative project is to explore the idea of "The Way" as a means to explore different aspects of our environment and how to experience those in their overall context. I understand "The Way" as a circulation space as well as a spatial sequence of events and experiences, a spiritual quest, a methodical approach, and a physical activity. In short, "The Way" is a multilayered experience space which affects your whole personality. My thesis is an approach to understand architecture as a greater whole which includes and connects all layers, all aspects of life and being.The project attempts to put into architectural perspective an understanding, meaning and context of architecture as a part of a broader realm of ideas and interpretations, influencing and being influenced by the people that use and create the built environment, dependent of and important for every aspect of our society. Always in a constant flux.nThe metaphor of a melody is explored as an abstract, theoretical background as well as a programmatic base of my design. It is composed of different layers and the image of the labyrinth of life. From an architectural and sociological outlook, this means being able to understand the relations of that melody and to respect it's necessity, - to rediscoverthe lost diversity of use, meaning and form.This paper is presented in three parts:First, the introduction and description of the motivation, second the description of all the different layers/sequences, emotional and theoretical ones, which are included in the research; the last part describes the rearrangement of those single sequences together as a whole and their transformation into the architectural design exploration, the final conclusion, my impressions on the process and the conclusion. / Department of Architecture
