Toward a New Architecture, by Le Corbusier & Play time, by Jacques Tati


According from the reading of Toward a New Architecture from Le Corbusier , the standard of the living place was created within the aesthetic and also functional. The standard that he created leads to the easier way of measuring and the simple way of the calculate these simple geometric structural forms. So, on this standard form of living, people seems to be more equally to each other and it is just like a new world with less complicated.

Furthermore in the Play time movie, this movie show the living of the same standard which everything in this world seem to have no different starting from the people’s out fit , the working space and lastly the living space. This leads to no envy and no jealousy to each other, because there is no need to be. Before I watched this movie, I used to think that the world with the no different would be so peaceful because it means that there are not going to be any thief because there have no reason to steal things when they are also have it. But my thought is kind of changed after seeing this movie. This world without different is totally boring. This world need to have some thing identical and iconic to give life more colorful, but to be different and standout need not only the creativity but it also require a willingness and the courage to get this such a thing done.

This movie of Tati will never ever come true because it is source of against the human nature. We as a human never stop developing thing, not only for the architecture but also every kind of study.
