Features: This book is a collection of artistic experiences, including some important projects I have participated in and similarities I have observed elsewhere. It does not intend to equate architecture with art but aims to reveal some connections and similarities that linger in my imagination. The beginning part establishes the framework of the book from the perspectives of art and architecture. In the following chapters, I explore in detail the connections and similarities between specific buildings, projects, paintings, sculptures, and photographic works. I love art, and I believe that the knowledge I have learned about spatial organization from appreciating paintings is as much as what I have learned from studying architectural principles.
