MashUp

Ornament and function go together. There is no structure in nature that can be classified as pure ornament without function. In traditional architecture, which was more tied to nature, such a separation never existed. Meanwhile, another conception "use what is there, stay simple, embrace open air, and honor light, freedom, and grace."  is also noticeable as social architecture based on economy, modesty, and the found beauty of environments. By achieving these schemes, emotional connection to artifacts, structures as well as nature is formed as characteristics demonstrated below:

1. We feel a sense of nourishment from them.
2. If we participate in actually making them, we also feel this sense of nourishment.
3. When we can identify this connection and distinguish it from media-influenced liking, then we find that we agree with many other people.
4. This is not merely an aesthetic judgment, but something that overlaps with deeper aspects of culture and life.
5. The connection can be checked empirically, and is not a simple matter of opinion.

In light of these, it’s possible to combine this method with the way we are constructing today so as to generate something interesting that will draw attention.
