Light in architecture
We all are confidence that if we do not have natural light in houses we dont buy them.For this reasons architects try to create a lot spaces so the natural light can go through the houses. But light is not just for lighting the house its also important case it helps you as a architect to read different textures. In acient times it was used the bright open hall, i dont think this is used in nowdays at least i as a architect will not use it. But the house of Philip Johnson was a great job about the place it was cause if i built the same house here in tirana i am 100% sure that it wont be selled at all. I am totally okay with the part that quantity of light is not nearly as important as its quality. I like the idea to have close sides and open in the top cause it gives more attratction,its a good idea to be created in modern houses. But i dont like to have a huge hole in roof and everything else to be closed as in Pantheon. Its a greate structure but if you see it from the top it just looks like a huge hole in the roof. I like the idea of having a good lighted house but not overlighted house. For example Frank Lloyd Wright has created house based on this.
