Abstract
dc:description.abstractThis thesis, "A Dialogue Between Permanence and Impermanence," is an exploration of architecture's ability to embody time's duality—its capacity to endure and its inevitability to transform. The project envisions a hotel as a living metaphor for life itself, where the permanence of its structural essence contrasts with the fleeting presence of its occupants. Through materiality, light, and spatial transitions, the design fosters a conversation between what is lasting and what is ephemeral.
