For example, the German p hi l o s ophe r Fr ie dr ic h N ie t z s c h e s aid, “ With ou t m u sic, l ife wou l d be a mis t a ke” (G o o d re a d s .c o m . 2 0 2 1 ) .

M u sic a n d a rc hi te c t u re a pp ear to be different. But their design principles a n d d e sig n e l e m e n t s a re si mi lar. There are two thought processes involved in t he c re a t io n o f music . ( R i ad. 20 09) A p o l l o ni an and D io nysi an A p o l l o ni a n Thi s t h o ug h t p ro c e s s i s ra t io nal in nature. Within music theor y it deals with i s s ue s l i ke r h y t h mic v a l ue and acoustic al design. In essence this theor y m a ke s us e o f i nte l l e c t to c re ate m u sic. Dio ny si an Thi s t h o ug h t p ro c e s s i s b a sed on an emotive view. It takes the music al t h e o r y, l i ke r h y t h mic v a l ue a nd acoustic al design, and explores how it c an b e m a ni p u l a te d to c re a te e m otion. This thought c an be seen a s an organic exp re ssio n o f se lf, re lying mo re o n i n t u i t io n t h a n l o g ic . Th e b a l a n c e o f t h e t wo t h o ug h t s i s c o n si s ten t i n m a n y a r t fo r m s . Sc u l pt u rin g , pa i nt i ng, de sign a nd o f c ou r s e arc hitec tu re.

Ex a m p l e s o f p e ople who did this are Iannis Xennakis, Claude B ra gdo n.

Pe op l e wi l l either express their identity through an objec t o r id e n t i f y wi t h c h a ra c te r i s t ic s of that objec t (Leac h, Era sing the traces, 20 0 2 ) . Unde r s t a ndi ng how id en tity is es tabl is h ed is vital for design er s , es p e c i a l l y w h e n t ra n s l a t i n g m u sic to building, to maintain arc hitec tural works re l eva nt to their se tting.

A rc hi te c t u re i s o f te n l i n ke d to identity. Whic h is why views s uc h a s critic al re g io n a l i s m te n d to m a ke s e nse. Therefore, this means arc hitec tural design i n s pi ra t io n , i s d e si ra b l e b e c ause it contributes to meaning and identity.

Consequently, it would establish a d i a l o g ue b e t we e n t h e n ew and existing building; the natural light helps s t re s s p re c i s e l y t h a t : t h e existing building works with the specific, solid l ig h t c o mi n g f ro m t h e s k y l ight s aligned with the main pathways through t h e b u i l d i n g , w h e re a s t h e ex pansion proposes a uniform and faint light that m a ke s t h e m o s t o f t h e w h o l e.
