My name is khan - Identity Crisis

Should I call this world urban / chaotic / global? Whatever adjective I add, the situation of uncertainty never changes. Amidst this constant twirling of things, the process of self – realization or self validation continues with underlying question of identity.
 
Here I think it is important to ask about the question of identity. Why is it important to define who we are? Why process of recognition becomes important for the affirmative path to progress? Here I am not bringing the question of architecture though representation, identity form a significant element. Here the concept of identity itself becomes important. I would like to start discussing about it from my next post according to my frame of understanding and then bring in the question of architecture.

A Step beyond Bricks

My journey as a human being gained more importance , the moment i was absorbed into the architectural realm. Insightful journey through various habitats, stories behind each and every stone of monuments, strengthening role of designer in soceital framework are just few of the examples to be given forming my basis of learning.
Through all these experiences, i have understood how the terms history, theory , representation, identity form an important part of architecture. Life is neither inside nor outside the text but in the middle realm where merging the both increases feasibility of ideas. Through this blog i want to share my ideas and opinion about architecture, identity, etc
