Architecture is the act of building something in the environment with its own order, so it has a close relationship with surrounding facilities. A collection of individual unique buildings makes the identity of the city. The image of the city will change depending on how the buildings are built, so it is very important to figure out how create a relationship with surrounding elements when it comes to the architectural design. The surrounding environments will change from moment to moment like a living thing depending on the movements of powers within the newly-built buildings. The movements follow a particular path with the flow depending on the result of the interactive response between the internal cohesiveness and external force. Architects build an architectural shape and space by reaching a compromise with each other and merging different factors in a relationship between users’ movements and surrounding environments through programs in the buildings. Therefore, they should figure out and understand the architectural flow and set up a design strategy. In other words, they need to understand ‘texture’ and find a key of how to design. In the analysis processes, it seems like there’s no correct answer to this, but there is a general solution, to a certain extent. In fact, this solution is not the most ideal one; it is relatively best choice available depending on the situation. It is important for the architects to adopt a flexible approach in order to accept various kinds of variables caused by the surrounding environments during the design. Architectural design is not about representing one’s subjective idea, but to bring out design elements from a mutual relationship with the environments. Therefore, the production of intentional and unnatural ideas during the design is highly likely to lead to bad results. The architects should construct buildings that adapt themselves to the environments rather than making a shape-focused exterior. This is because architecture is not against the natural world with an organic circulation system; instead architecture and nature should coexist with each other. A building is a part of the ecosystem and needs to be alive in the ecosystem. By doing so, the building can work and stand by itself within the surrounding environments without changing the course of nature. In this way, the architecture exists in a relation to environments, so it should be explored in an integrated way through the unity of the nature and background of the city rather than being considered as an individual factor applied to them in which buildings are placed. The two elements should be mixed and united together. Architecture needs to be a part of the scenery that shows each of the buildings in nature instead of making the environments special through individual buildings. To construct those buildings, topological architecture that makes buildings a part of the earth and lets them down into topology and interpenetrates the surrounding scenery into the buildings and mixes them together, is a very useful way to build buildings from conditions of the earth. This is able to create a shape and space for activities through a manipulation method to lift types of lands up and down. Architecturally-formulated empty spaces diversify people’s behavior patterns through a change in topography, enrich expected activities in a place, and offer multi-dimensional experiences. In the architecture, creating a space is as important as the construction of a shape because an activity makes a space that leads to movements. Spaces divided into inside and outside should have a mutually close relationship with each other. The relevance of their relationship would be set and understood by users and could have an architectural meaning when the users are able to experience the inside and outside spaces at the same time. What we understand of buildings means that we should recognize their shapes as well as architectural spaces together. Therefore, those two spaces have a relative relationship that doesn’t exist independently; it should never create a binary relationship that is mutually conflicted. It is not desirable to separate internal spaces and external spaces outside a building by its skin because the definition of inside and outside space can be turned around anytime and their relationship cannot be fixed. A building has an internal space, so it also has an external one too, and vice versa. Likewise, the flexibility of the mindset about the fact that a relationship between two spaces would be always changed mutually shows that the boundary of the spaces is not conflicting and should be considered in a mutual and continuous relationship. An overlapped layer formulated by a change in time point according to the movements of observers through the configuration that doesn’t separate the boundary of spaces will provide various experiences in the spaces. The architecture is created by the result of reasoning about the epistemology and ontology towards a thing. It is also constructed by meeting the situations of the times, so it is a kind of expression of the trend of the times and sociality. Temporality as a daily life in the present is born as a space and shape. However, the expression of the present temporality in architecture is represented based on the accumulation of the past traces, so the memory of the past is a very important factor. A city that is enriched with layers of the traces that have cherished individuals’ memories can encourage people to communicate smoothly with each other and make people-centered environments. The modern society In particular, along with uncertain elements that are hard to forecast make it difficult to respond to the environments. However, in this kind of situation, architects should combine a variety of variables based on human nature and design the architecture and city.
