From the beginning of the architecture semiotics in 1960s, the main question in nearly all of the architectural discussions is whether the architecture as a functional and utilitarian construction has any meta-functional meaning? From 1990s, with appearing the semiotics of the passions, the analysis of the architecture meaning extended over the cognitive dimension of the meaning and the emotion-perceptional dimension of that was considered, which is the turning-point of the architecture semiotics. Therefore, discussing the emotion-perceptional dimension of the architecture based on the hermeneutical phenomenology and the discourse theory has developed the architecture analysis from just a formal attitude to a new approach considered the architecture as an object means substantial fact in the world and interacting with the subject-body.
Hence, the question is how the architecture analysis could pass the coding level study and provides studying the meaningful experience of the architectural object. The hypothesis is based on the theory of the semiotics of the passions (i.e. tensive dimension of the discourse), it is possible to extend novel horizons to the meta-functional dimension of the architectural object. Therefore, in this research, firstly, it is explained the cognitive- actional dimension of the spatial discourse (i.e. the being-text). Then, it is defined the separation of the being-object architecture as an instrumental place and becoming-object architecture as existential place. Finally, the researchers attempt to show based on the Khaju bridge how the qualitative factors constructing the tensive space by two valances of coherence and rhythm make possible the analysis of architectural object. |
