are you an architect? do you like song or listening to the music? and have you ever heard a song which is related to the architecture?
try to find these songs and listen it.. listen to the lyrics.. and you will find the true architectural space in those songs.. although the authors is don't have architecture background..
1. Rumah Kita
first let's listen to Indonesian song, you must know this song.. "Rumah kita" by God Bless. The lyric of this song is clearly about architecture. This song is describing about a simple house that "we" have and telling us about even we only have a simple house without decorated, painting, just from bamboo, the roof is from straw, the floor is just ground, no flowers, no fence... but it's our own, our home, our life, and we need to thank God about what God gave to us.. we still can find the happiness in that house..

2. White Room
This songs is sung by Cream. The song is about a loneliness, there a person who feel loneliness want to die, he walk from his white room to the railway and wait for a train 'come back' to him. The feeling of the loneliness in this song we can feel by look how the space in the white room and the train station is told symbolically. Just listen now if you want to know..

here is for the lyrics :http://www.lyricsfreak.com/b/beatles/norwegian+wood_10026489.html
the space is can be shown by many ways, drawing, 3d model, film, and included a song. All of this song is not made by an architect by they can give story about architecture space. Now, do mind to be a singer or an architectural song author.?

ReplyDeleteI don't really know what to say.
Except that, it's interesting to see that Architecture can be expressed with music.
