The site is flanked by science buildings to the north (green), mathematics and engineering buildings to the south (purple), and the library reading room to the west (red). Paradoxically, the library is the only building not accessible from the public square.

The central lawn areas are for common use by students and the public, but only the tables on their edges are regularly used. The open areas are occasionally used for events.

The view to the library building from Frome Road is heritage listed and cannot be obstructed. A minor axis of view also exist across the front of the library building.

Luminosity is, in its strictest sense, the presence of light and its intensity. It is the state of being luminous, an ambiguous state in which an object can either be the source of light or irradiated by it. Derived from the Latin word for light, lumen, luminosity is also defined by its opposite: darkness.

When we examine the roles that the concept of light has in the English language today, it is apparent that luminosity is far more than a mere physical phenomenon. Light is associated with the good, with progress, with the divine. Someone may have a bright smile, as if there were literally rays of light streaming from their face. An illuminating lecture will clear away the darkness surrounding a difficult topic, leaving its listeners better off than they were before. Most tellingly, the coming of the age of reason in Western civilisation is known as the enlightenment. Like that of the Buddha, enlightenment is a transcendence of the mundane, an unquestionably good emergence from darkness from which there is no return. Light is truth; the truth of God, of science, and of our own visual realities.

PLACE


the purifying light of le corbusier The architects of modernism in the early twentieth century saw light as perhaps the most important fundamental of architecture. Light was healthy: an illuminated dwelling could change the lives of those who lived within. Foremost of the exponents of light was Le Corbusier. Fascinated with the pure Euclidian geometries of ancient Greek and Roman architecture, he marvelled at the way the bright Mediterranean sun revealed the plastic qualities of the white ruins of the Parthenon. Accordingly, in his early works light was not considered to be important in itself so much as it was used as a device by which to reveal, accentuate and glorify the new architecture he had created. The wash of light over the planar facades and geometrical roof gardens of his Villa Savoye (1928-31), the light that floods its interior spaces, is a passive light that merely illuminates his architectural creation. In his later works, Le Corbusier’s attitude towards light shifted. Light no longer revealed his architecture; instead, his architecture revealed light. The depth in the facades of his buildings such as the Mill Owners’ Association Building in Ahmedabad (1951-54) used

their pure geometries not as ends in themselves but as means to celebrate light shadow. Light’s truth became a truth of emotion change rather than of pure reason. The openings of the Chapel of Notre Dame du Haut at Ronchamp (1950-55) are arranged not for maximum illumination but rather for emotional effect: coloured alcoves lit in the morning and evening accentuate the warmth of the sun as it rises and sets, and deep cavities in the wall separate light into rays of different shapes and sizes that are revealed at different times of the day. In the Monastery of Sainte Marie de la Tourette at Éveux-surl’Arbresle (1953-60), the particular qualities of light at sunset are given almost ceremonial importance where a slit opening in a western wall draws lines of glowing light across the room with the setting sun. Illumination was always central to the works of Le Corbusier, but by the end of his career light was his architecture. References: Corrodi, M. & Spechtenhauser, K., 2008.

IDEA


light as a journey Light, often thought of as one of life’s constants, is in fact continually changing. The direction, intensity and colour of light from the sun shifts throughout the day and across the seasons. Indeed, it is these changes and cycles that have fascinated humankind since before the dawn of civilisation. Rather than despair that light cannot be fixed into place, the journey of the sun through the sky and all of the wonderful variations in light it brings should be celebrated. The light pavilions herein take the concept of journey as their parti. Much as the cycles of light have no beginning or end, the destination of each pavilion is ambiguous. As visitors travel through their depths, they pass through sun and shade, from bright to dark, and back again. Yet, each journey is different: being conceived to capture and amplify the movements of the sun, the pavillions will present an entirely different atmosphere upon visiting, each moment a once-in-a-year experience.

The spiral ramp slowly descends into the earth, plunging into darkness and then returning to the light as it passes a shaft dug into the ground. Each revolution the light dims, the change all the more apparent for the contrast between the dark of the earth and light of the shaft. Much as ‘travelling is half the fun’, the gallery in this concept is the walls of the spiral ramp itself, and the final destination at the bottom is merely a place for repose and contemplation. Each visit rewards with something new, and the passage of the seasons is celebrated, with the bottom of the shaft being completely illuminated only at noon on midsummer’s day.

In doing so, light is abstracted to its essence and the inhabitants are made keenly aware of the movement of the sun across the sky from sunrise to sunset, from summer to winter.

linguistic definition

philosophical definition

A reflection is a phenomenon that arises from or is the consequence of something else. Light reflected by an object is light that the object throws back without absorbing it; the object is not the source of light. Similarly, an image seen as a reflection in a mirrored surface has an intimate relationship with but is not the source of the image itself.

Reflection is intimately tied up with the concept of human thought. The English philosopher John Locke used reflection to describe ‘the notice which the mind takes of its own operations’, in other words, thought about thought. For Hegel, on the other hand, reflection is the way by which we find the essential and significant in things (thoughts, experiences). In this sense, much as light reflected from an object is intrinsically linked to the light that hit it but will undergo a change in its intensity, colour or direction, reflection can only ever be a part of the thing from which it has arisen, a simplified indication of the presence of this thing but without any explanation of the thing’s deeper processes or origins.

case study two: reflection 20

IDEA


the essential reflections of tadao ando The grounded, heavy concrete forms of Tadao Ando’s architecture are not typically associated with the phenomenon of reflection. However, in the austere surfaces of Ando’s work we can find a use of reflection that is much richer than the immediate visual stimulation of a mirrored façade. Most obviously, this is apparent in his recurring use of a reflective body of water as a compositional element, particularly in his public works such as the pools outside the Modern Art Museum at Fort Worth or the Museum of Literature in Himeji. Rather than reflect, his buildings are reflected; with this important distinction they surrender some of themselves to outside nature, becoming clear or distorted as light and weather changes. In their horizontality these pools also bring a part of the sky down to the earth, so that the oval-shaped pool in the Naoshima Museum of Contemporary Art infinitely expands its sunken, enclosing courtyard. The most profound manifestation of this use of reflection is the Buddhist temple of Honpuku-ji on Awaji island: the entry stairs to the main hall descend into the middle of a lotus pond, and in the reflection of the water the visitor finds themselves paradoxically descending into the sky, into heaven, marking

a transition into the sacred as surely as that of the raised platform of a traditional temple. Ando also uses reflection to illuminate his buildings with a soft, diffuse light. The mirrored surfaces of the pools of water outside the Museum at Fort Worth and the Church of the Water redirect an ever-changing light into the buildings’ interior, at once an elegant solution for illumination and a source of rich, shifting experience. Concrete too is made to reflect: in his Church of the Light, dominated as it is by the illuminating cross carved into the wall behind the altar, much of the internal light enters the dark interior reflected off the concrete plane that bisects the main building at an angle. Where other architects might use glass or polished metal to the same effect, by his use of concrete the light reflected off Ando’s forms is reduced to its essence. The reflections of the sun on the walls of his Koshino house thus become light materialised, and by removing all but abstract representations of light’s direction, intensity and colour reveal far more of the sun than might a glimpse through an open window.

a journey through light To visit the pavillion of light is to undertake a journey. The destination is unimportant; it is the travelling itself that matters. The pavillion is thus composed almost entirely out of that space of circulation, the corridor, no longer secondary but the most important experience. Angled across the extents of the site, only one end of the corridor is visible at any one time; to move forward is an act of faith, a journey taken into the unknown. At the same time, the pavillion and its corridor act as a device by which the journey of the sun across the sky may be read. Light is reduced to its essence as it reflects off the long, planar walls, and the bend in the corridor accentuates the sun’s position by presenting a different angle of view. As the sun makes its slow journey across the sky day to day, month to month, each visit to the pavillion becomes a unique and memorable experience. Inspirations

linguistic definition

philosophical definition

In the most literal sense, opacity is the degree to which an object obstructs the transmission of light or other radiant energy. In meaning it is inseparable from its opposite, transparency, to which it is always inversely proportional. Opacity can thus be characterised as the absence of transparency, or the absence of light.

Just as light is a metaphor for truth and knowledge and transparency allows this truth to be revealed, opacity can be regarded as a state in which knowledge and truth are concealed. An opaque argument may still carry profound meaning, yet this meaning is obscured and can only be reached by some difficulty, much as light struggles its way through an opaque object, reaching the other side a weakened version of its former self. When used to refer to a person or their actions, to be opaque is not a passive state of being. Instead, it carries the connotations of a deliberate concealment, a desire to prevent the light of truth from illuminating whatever darkness is lies hidden from the observer.

louis kahn and the shadows of being In an attitude far removed from the contemporary worship of transparency and ever-abundant light, Louis Kahn’s architecture explicitly celebrated the power of opacity and shadow. For Kahn, architecture was not just the “magnificent play of masses brought together in light” as it so famously was for his teacher, Le Corbusier. Instead, form could only arise from shadow: opacity was substance, and inseparable from light: “All material in nature, the mountains and the streams and the air and we, are made of light which has been spent, and this crumpled mass called material casts a shadow, and the shadow belongs to Light”. Architecture thus became for Kahn a play between shadow and light, neither allowed to reign supreme for one could not exist without the other. In his design for the Salk Institute (1959-1966), dark shadows on the monolithic concrete volumes bring the forms to life and heighten the awareness of the bright light of the sun, especially in the alternation of brigtness and darkness in the undercroft. Similarly, he often used a glimpse of light, abstracted and redirected, to articulate how dark a space actually was.

Kahn’s praise of shadows was at its most fervent in his later public works under the harsh light of the central Asian sun. In the Indian Institute of Management at Ahmedabad (1974), the building was not shaded externally with of bris-soleil but instead created its own internal shadows by means of deep reveals and a double-skin of walls. Here, shadow was kept sacred and protected: rather than be exposed to the sun outside, his architecture allowed the “outside [belong] to the sun, and on the inside people live and work”. Kahn’s shadows were a place between ideas and reality, between silence and light, a ‘treasury’ of mystery and awe by which architecture was made manifest and the world could be experienced.

Aside from slim canopies that shelter the points of access into the pavillion, the visible form above ground is kept to an absolute minimum. Many of the openings for light are flush with the ground, visible only when walked over, while others take the form of mysterious sculpture standing free in the lawn. These sculptures both capture the light of the sun and project its shadows, giving a taste of the journey to be experienced below.

In assistance of the former, the expression of the beams supporting the ceiling creates evocative shadows that elucidate the sun’s movements. At the same time, manipulation of the spacing between the beams subtly exaggerates the perception of perspective, making the journey ahead appear longer than it actually is.

In his seminal essay In Praise of Shadows, author Junichiro Tanizaki expounds on the virtues of the humble toilet. For him, bathrooms are a ‘place of spiritual repose’, located away from the house at the end of a long corridor where one can ‘bask in the faint glow’ of light and lose oneself in meditation. The bathrooms in the pavillion are thus not tucked away but celebrated with a unique experience of light of their own. Following the metaphor of the journey, they are located at the end of a narrow passageway, dimly lit from a slit above, that contracts both vertically and horizontally to increase the sense of distance. Upon opening the cubicle door the visitor is greeted with a final surprise: the toilets themselves are lit via a shallow alcove, the spiritual light from above engendering repose and contemplation in this most unlikely of spaces.

To visit the two seminar rooms, mirrored across the corridor, is a completely different experience depending on the time of visit. Early in the day, the southern room captures the warm light of the morning sun while the northern room is lit only by cool, indirect light. In the afternoon the roles are reversed, and so the cycle continues day after day.

linguistic definition

philosophical definition

Filtration is a process by which objects are passed through a device to remove all that is unwanted. The word carries with it connotations of movement, and is also used to denote the action of something gradually entering or leaving a place in small quantities and in a specified direction.

The process of filtration is an active and deliberate attempt to remove what is unwanted and keep only what is desirable. This notion of the agency of filtration would revolutionise the way we saw the world and ourselves when Kant proposed that all experience and thought was not objective, but was actively filtered by the mind. Our perception of reality, then, is only what made it through the filter, the good and desirable. What does not make it through a filter is inevitably discarded or dissipated, considered unworthy. Filtration implies action taken on a moving, continuous process, making it distinct from the sorting of immobile objects. In this regard light, water and traffic may be filtered while photographs, bottled drinks or cars are merely sorted. Filtration therefore does not produce discrete or even complete results, but is rather an ongoing process, an intention as much as an action.

JOURNEY


the filtering skin of the mashrabiya To let in the desirable while excluding the unwanted: this was and continues to be the function of the mashrabiya, the intricate latticework windows of the sun-baked middle east. Mashrabiya were used as a filter between the cool, private inside of a house and the hot, busy world outside: they allowed illumination without heat, views outside while screening those in, and opened the house to ventilation without compromising security. The mashrabiya has experienced a contemporary revival as both a practical element and a symbol of Islamic culture. Those of today have spread to cover entire buildings as a façade or skin, leveraging technology to in pursuit of a dynamic functionality. Jean Nouvel has been at the forefront of the mashrabiya revival, beginning with his now-iconic Institut du Monde Arabe in Paris (1987). Here, the mashrabiya are a series of light-sensitive oculi, each designed to open and close to regulate the entry of sun on what is otherwise an all-glass façade. Aedas’ Al-Bahr towers in Abu Dhabi (2012) take the dynamic mashrabiya of Nouvel’s Insitut to a colossal scale, with a second skin of umbrella-like shade structures covering the lightly-tinted glass building façade. In the latter

case, these filter incoming sunlight by as much as an astonishing fifty percent. In its renaissance, the mashrabiya is also being employed for its ability to create a shifting, dynamic beauty, not just for practical ends. In the Louvre Abu Dhabi (2007-2017), Jean Nouvel eschews his earlier attempt at a moveable mashrabiya in favour of a static screen, this time in the form of giant dome, that with its many layers induces kinetic displays of light as the sun crosses the sky. The mashrabiya has proven to be continually relevant as a means of filtering and mediating light, and its ability to adopt and interact with sensor and data technology promise to keep it a relevant architectural device well into the future. There is only some irony to be found in the fact that the contemporary mashrabiya are often employed as a method to attract the outside gaze, not filter it as they once were.
