Abstract

The perceived environment is determined by the built environment and human sensitivity. The two aspects play equally important roles in human interaction with the world. The built environment is shaped by the geographical condition, the political and social context, the use of material and tectonic, and the proposed program. Although human sensitivity can be influenced by the environment, it originates from the attributes of individuals. Therefore designing architecture is more than designing a building, even more than designing a built environment. It studies everchanging human needs in perceiving and interacting with the world and manipulation in mediating human interactions. The following body of works are studies exploring the unstable relationship between the built environment and how humans perceive it. It particularly interests in how the development of technologies fluctuates humans’ values and expectations toward daily life and consequently changes humans’ perceptions.
