  • Laugier Vs Durand: Revisiting Primitive Hut in the Classical Architectural Discourse
    YEDİ: SANAT, TASARIM VE BİLİM DERGİSİ KIŞ 2016, SAYI 15: 111-120 WINTER 2016, ISSUE 15: 111-120 YEDİ: SANAT, TASARIM VE BİLİM DERGİSİ Laugier vs Durand: Revisiting Primitive Hut in the Classical Architectural Discourse Ece KÜRELİ * ........................................................................................................... Abstract Finding an origin of architecture describes a process of inquiry which embodies itself in the term of ‘primitive hut’. This inquiry starts with Marcus Pollio Vitruvius from the antiquity and evolves into skepticism and rationalism of the Enlightenment Age. Quatrémere de Quincy, Viollet-le-Duc, William Chambers, Jacques-François Blondel and Claude Nicolas Ledoux, who were the important figures of the era, discussed the question of architectural origin differently. However, Marc-Antoine Laugier and Jean-Nicolas-Louis Durand, another two important figures of the Enlightenment, developed different aspects to the question with regard to their arguments on developmental process of the primitive hut. Their different viewpoints require a further investigation since these two 18th century French architectural theoreticians have fictionalize their objectives of ‘ideal architecture’ and ‘true beauty’ from the metaphor of the primitive hut. Keywords: Origin of Architecture, Primitive Hut, The Enlightenment, Laugier, Durand.

Sarah Carpenter and Don Sharaf, owners of the Institute, split the evening between avalanche basics, a checklist approach to decision making, and a discussion of this year’s snowpack in the Tetons. The night ended with 52 door prizes. Many in the crowd of 90 left not only smarter about the risks of winter backcountry travel but also with smiles on their faces from the prizes.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. The natural mathematical abilities of humans have advanced civilizations. These abilities have been demonstrated in cultural heritage, especially traditional houses, which display evidence of an intuitive mathematics ability. Tribes around the world have built traditional houses with unique styles. The present study involved the collection of data from documentation, observation, and interview. The observations of several traditional buildings in Indonesia were based on camera images, aerial camera images, and documentation techniques. We first analyzed the images of some sample of the traditional houses in Indonesia using projective geometry and simple house theory and then formulated the definitions of building numbers and projective coordinates. The sample of the traditional houses is divided into two categories which are stilt houses and nonstilt house. The present article presents 7 types of simple houses, 21 building numbers, and 9 projective coordinates.

  • 10Th Mountain Division Hut Association Summer Hut Information Please Share with All Group Members
    10TH MOUNTAIN DIVISION HUT ASSOCIATION SUMMER HUT INFORMATION PLEASE SHARE WITH ALL GROUP MEMBERS Backcountry Preparedness The huts are situated between 9,700 and 11,700 feet in elevation. A warm summer morning at a trailhead can turn quickly (and without warning) into a cold storm with lightning, hail, or even snow at higher elevations. Hypothermia and altitude sickness are common problems in the mountains, be sure that you know how to prevent, recognize and treat these potentially life-threatening conditions. Bring enough extra clothing, survival gear, food, and water to spend the night out if you do not make it to the hut (Summer Suggested Equipment List). Traveling to the Huts Hiking & Mountain Biking* There are many Forest Service roads and trails that lead to, or are close to the huts. Purchase a map through 10th Mountain, a local outdoor store, or contact the local Forest Service for more information. Start early in the day and allow plenty of time to reach the hut, and remember to accommodate the slowest member of your group. *Mountain bikes are prohibited from entering Wilderness Areas and may not be allowed on all trails, so please know and respect any restrictions and boundary locations. Vehicle Access While many of the huts are accessible by 4-wheel drive high clearance vehicles, 10th Mountain does not guarantee vehicle access, and some roads are considered more challenging than others. Since the huts were built for skiers, mountain bikers and hikers, motor vehicles are strongly discouraged except for group support. Please consider a non-motorized option to access the huts, but if driving: Purchase a map of the area and determine which road(s) are appropriate for your driver/vehicle and contact the Forest Service before your departure for information on road conditions and openings/closures.
