On Craft

<p>Craft is a relationship - a dialogue - between craftsman, tool, and material. Craft begins with the intent of all of these loci, and all of these loci are rooted in Being.</p> <p>Being is known through the consciousness, awareness, and perception of a subject. Being is the inherent existence and totality of "what is."</p> <p>Being crafts us; Craft imbues Being.</p> <p>This thesis re-examines the pedagogical approach of an architectural education. The focus is placed on craft through presuppositionless phenomenology.</p> <p>In an age of endless mechanized production and spiritless materialism, the practice of craft can teach us to return to the experience of Being.</p>
