Sacred and Profane

This week we study about sacred and profane. This word are opposite, sacred are mean relating to a god or religion or very important or greatly respected, but profane mean showing a lack of respect for God or holy things or related to ordinary life, not religion or holy things.


I think this word are very hard to understand and explain, but I think I understand about this word but not all.


The word " sacred" I understand it's a something look like holy or high then people such as religion. And the word "profane" mean not respect with holy, such as the dog wear T-shirt Buddha screen on the back, people sit on head budda image and buddha image have sex, it's not suitable for thai people because the buddha mean mental of thai people, so they don't want to see the buddha they are adore take a bad passive.


But some people are not respect about buddha, they see it's not profane, from that I think it's a profane or not are depend on thinking and respect of this people, such as Mandarin Racha Devi hotel, they design hotel look like a temple, some people think it's profane and suitable for do that, but some people think it's a new way to design hotel

EMPTY SPACE

This week we study about empty space. In my opinion empty = nothing, so empty space = nothing in space but it not useless because we can put or create something in this space, from this can make the feeling change. From this I think empty space feeling and space are change by anybody not same everyone.


I mean such as storeroom, at first this room are empty space, but later people put something in this space are make the space have a feeling and effect are different by people and time.

From this picture shown different space and feeling

I think empty space not different by anybody but can different by one people, from thinking or style of this people, such as a bed room at first style are europe style but later it's can be asian style or another style follow need or like of people at this time.



The last I think space are change by function of user, such as fist we make the empty room are bedroom, later we change it to storeroom, the empty space are useful space
