| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research is to clarify the matter of “dwelling” in new historical perspectives, by illustrating the outline of German culture chiefly in the early 20th century. More specifically, this is an interdisciplinary study between philosophy and architecture, which seems to be still lacking at present. Thus we comparatively investigated, first, major modern architects, such as Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier, Walter Gropius, and Hans Scharoun, who had given their own views on “new dwelling” in the international housing exhibition (the famous Weissenhofsiedlung). Next, we studied Martin Heidegger, one of the philosophers representing the last century, who had stressed in the “Building, Dwelling, Thinking” that we must learn to dwell. Finally, we attempted to find new possibilities of dwelling for our present-day society, comparing Heidegger’s topology with the modern architecture.
