Descripción
Sumario:<p id="p1">This essay presents a comparison of the answers to one question found in the contemporary culture of architectural life and in philosophy. It is a question of whether we know enough about what esthetic needs are. When comparing the answers, we want to find out whether there are any contradictions between the attitudes existing in the neighboring cultural fields (in this case, the contemporary architectural lifestyle and philosophy). It is believed that their presence may signal the fact that today&rsquo;s popular paradigm of architectural life begins to grow old and become obsolete, that is, that it is time to rethink and modernize it. The presented comparison of the answers to the question &ldquo;do we know enough about what aesthetic needs are today&rdquo; suggests that this may very well be the case.</p>
