Abstract

Abstract This study is an exploration of Marcel Breuer’s basic design methodology as it appears in his writings, particularly his 1956 monograph Marcel Breuer: Sun and Shadow, the Philosophy of an Architect. By identifying the influences that helped shape the background to his theoretical approach, and with the support of broader philosophical resources, the characteristics and subtleties of Breuer’s particular concept of dualism in architecture are outlined. This allows for a new interpretative approach to the critical analysis of his postwar architecture, using structuralism, through which the specific qualities of Breuer’s dualism are evaluated in terms of design.

“太阳与阴影:探索马塞尔·布劳耶的基本设计原则”

摘要本研究是对马塞尔·布鲁尔的基本设计方法的探索，正如他在著作中所出现的那样，特别是他1956年的专著《马塞尔·布鲁埃尔：太阳与阴影，建筑师的哲学》。通过确定有助于塑造其理论方法背景的影响，并在更广泛的哲学资源的支持下，概述了布鲁尔在建筑中的二元论概念的特点和微妙之处。这为使用结构主义对其战后建筑进行批判性分析提供了一种新的解释方法，通过结构主义从设计的角度评估布鲁尔二元论的具体品质。

期刊介绍： Architecture and Culture, the international award winning, peer-reviewed journal of the Architectural Humanities Research Association, investigates the relationship between architecture and the culture that shapes and is shaped by it. Whether culture is understood extensively, as shared experience of everyday life, or in terms of the rules and habits of different disciplinary practices, Architecture and Culture asks how architecture participates in and engages with it – and how both culture and architecture might be reciprocally transformed. Architecture and Culture publishes exploratory research that is purposively imaginative, rigorously speculative, visually and verbally stimulating. From architects, artists and urban designers, film-makers, animators and poets, from historians of culture and architecture, from geographers, anthropologists and other social scientists, from thinkers and writers of all kinds, established and new, it solicits essays, critical reviews, interviews, fictional narratives in both images and words, art and building projects, and design hypotheses. Architecture and Culture aims to promote a conversation between all those who are curious about what architecture might be and what it can do.
