| Abstract |
Attempts are being made to shift the center of the discourse from the subject to the object by discussing postmodern philosophy from the point of view that “the majority of the relationship in the universe does not include humans.” In the modern society, we already live in a network of various inhumane objects such as autonomous vehicles and AI. We are not liberated as independent subjects by Kant’s correlationism, which gives only a fixed meaning in it, but as mutual object beings that recognize the autonomy of surrounding objects and create new meanings through symbiotic relationships. American philosopher Graham Harmon also talks about his idea of ‘object-oriented ontology’ and presents new thinking points about the interaction and symbiotic society between humans and non-human objects. Architecture is also an equal entity that interacts with humans in society as a being with an equal status of auto-poises that create new values, not as a result of the subject. Modern architecture was nothing more than a subordinate object dominated by the human subject or following the style of the times. In modern architecture, objectivist architecture that values the autonomy of the interior of architecture, not architecture belonging to such a subject, is becoming important. In this paper, the characteristics of autonomous object formation were derived through the analysis of the process of autonomous object formation through the object withdrawal method of architecture through the objectivistic thinking of architects who talked about the autonomous formal system in architecture. Through this, modern architecture formed architecture as an autonomous object through temporary distancing, non-directive ginning relations, non-reducing formal systems, and mutual objectivity.
It was found that modern buildings with such characteristics are no longer fixed beings determined by the subject, but are equal social beings that have an autonomous form and create new meanings in relation to users. |
