对居住的理解的问题是,它被认为是纯粹的功利主义。把它看作是这样,就等于否认了它对一个人的认知,从而对一个人的思维方式所具有的所有结构方面。

The problem in the understanding of inhabitation is that it is perceived as purely utilitarian. Perceiving it as such, is to deny it of all the structural aspects it has on one’s perception and thus on one’s way of thinking.

在重新定义居住地和承认它的完整部分时,人们意识到它与美学密切相关。在这个意义上,居住将包含一个基本的美学方法。然而,问题是,人们如何能够使居住超越其纯粹的功能使用,而将其视为沉思,从而视为审美?

In redefining the habitat and in admitting its completive part, one realizes that it is closely related to aesthetics. In that sense, inhabiting would contain an essential aesthetic approach. However, the question is how one can think habitation beyond its purely functional use, and instead seeing it as contemplative and thus as aesthetic?

这难道不是在否定它的主要功能–庇护和保护吗?在什么情况下,居住和住所,作为对世界的撤退,可以成为对外部的思考和沉思的空间,甚至被理解为特权空间?

Wouldn’t it be denying its primary function of shelter and protection? In what way could inhabiting and dwelling, as a retreat from the world, be a space for reflection and contemplation of the exterior, and even be understood as privileged space?
