Idea of Major Program

Concept

Now our entire world is deeply involved in the ecological controversy surrounding the relationship between Man and Nature. Man should stay on good terms with nature. To protect nature is to protect the necessary environment of human life. It is impossible to simply connect man and nature; there are some middle stages between them. Architecture is to become a sanctuary protecting human life; it is a middle stage in the transitional process. Therefore, architecture should contain the characteristics of these two elements. This project, the Re-Ligare Institute, is not only a functional space for man reconnecting with nature, but also a physical structure for architecture intergrading with nature.
