The school of architecture that I studied at some 30 years ago

譯者: Yi-Chieh Chiu 審譯者: Phyllis Huang

happened to be across the street from the wonderful art gallery

designed by the great architect Louis Kahn.

I love the building, and I used to visit it quite often.

I saw the security guard run his hand across the concrete wall.

我看見警衛用手輕輕劃過水泥牆

I could see that the security guard was moved by the building

我可以看出警衛也深受那棟建築感動

這個場景仍歷歷在目，我當時想著

but here -- here was a reaction of the heart.

但在這裡的—卻是心靈的真實反映

for sensuousness, for atmosphere, the emotional response.

我們知道，人們追尋美麗的事物

So in 2003, there was an open call for designs

for the Bahá'í Temple for South America.

This was the first temple in all of South America.

徵的是南美洲巴哈伊靈曦堂的設計圖

a hugely important milestone for the Bahá'í community,

這在當時是全南美第一間靈曦堂

because this would be the last of the continental temples

and would open the door for national and local temples to be built

a circular room, nine sides, nine entrances, nine paths,

allowing you to come to the temple from all directions,

九面牆、九個入口及九條小徑組成

讓民眾能夠從各個方向進入靈曦堂

as there are no clergy in the Bahá'í faith.

And in a world which is putting up walls,

因為巴哈伊信仰中沒有神職人員

to people of all faiths, walks of life, backgrounds,

It was like designing one of the first churches for Christianity

And how do you even define what's sacred today?

I stumbled across this beautiful quote from the Bahá'í writings,

當今的我們該如何建築神聖空間

更甚者，我們該如何定義「神聖」

and if your prayer is answered -- which is already very interesting --

我曾偶然發現一句優美的巴哈伊禱文

that the pillars of your heart will become ashine.

And I loved this idea of the inner and the outer,

like when you see someone and you say, "That person is radiant."

並真的得到回應-這本身就夠神奇了

And I was thinking, "My gosh, how could we make something

我很喜歡這個內在與外在的概念

Like alabaster, if you kiss it with light, it becomes alive.

天啊，我該怎麼把這運用到建築上？

with structure in between capturing light.

Maybe a pure form, a single form of emanation

and everything we kept making was looking too much like an egg.

You all know this crazy search, letting the process take you,

我們所建築的一切都長得太像蛋了

I saw this little video of a plant moving in light,

this idea that the temple could have reach,

曾經看過一部植物趨光性的短片

that movement within a circle could mean movement and stillness,

在圓圈內的移動能同時展現動與靜

the temples being as perfect as is humanly possible,

and we kept thinking, well, what is perfection?

And I remember I stumbled into this image of this Japanese basket

and thinking our Western notions of perfection need to be challenged,

that this wonderful silhouette of this basket, this wonkiness,

and that it has the kind of dimple of what you might imagine a shoulder

而我們所要思考的就是：什麼是完美？

我記得當時無意間瞧見這張日本籃子的圖片

就覺得西方對於完美的觀念必須被挑戰
