  1. UM, I AM CURIOUS AS TO WHETHER YOU HAVE ACTUALLY LOOKED AT THE THEORY BEHIND SOME OF THIS WORK? IT SEEMS TO ME THAT YOU ARE MAKING PURELY AESTHETIC COMPARISONS… i HAVE LOOKED AT YOUR OTHER “COMPARISONS” AND i AM STRUCK BY HOW LITTLE THOUGHT THERE IS BEHIND THE EXAMPLES, BECAUSE ONE THING LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER, DOES NOT MEAN IT IS, OR IS INSPIRED BY ANOTHER. IN THIS EXAMPLE OF ZAHA HADID ESPECIALLY… THE LAST IMAGES YOU SHOW ARE SO FAR REMOVED FROM THE CORBUSIER IDEA OF PILOTI, THAT IT MAKES ME QUESTION YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE PILOTI.

    1. Hi Someone

      Thank you for your elaborate feedback!

      I’m sure, my blog readers will be happy to know your name, and the source of your knowledge in the field.

      In my blog, I juxtapose examples of projects without the intention to insinuate that one architect copied from another, but rather to spur a dialog among architects.
      The goal is to encourage an architectural planning process that I like to call Conscious Inspiration.

      I am obviously not the first to consider this approach:
      Le Corbusier mentions in one of his books that his sources of inspiration for the Cathedral of Ron Champ was Villa Adriana at Tivoli. The French architect Emile Aillaud describes in his writings that his source of inspiration for 3 office buildings in LA Defense (near Paris) was the Piazza Dei Miracoli with the Tower of Pisa. Louis Kahan eventually got his inspiration to design the Hurva Synagogue from the Temple of Solomon in Jerusalem, and Tadao Ando traveled all over Europe to get inspired by existing buildings as a way to train him self to become an architect..

      So far, I have only scratched the surface of this concept, and I am in the beginning of this journey. I believe the journey itself may lead us architects to a more rigorous architectural planning.

  2. I have been discovering many various ideas on this and find it post to be one of the far more enlightening on the topic. Hope we can increase the top quality of responses than which I possess witnessed as many do not seem to be quite relevant.

  5. When I originally commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each
    time a comment is added I get three e-mails with
    the same comment. Is there any way you can remove
    me from that service? Appreciate it!
