The art of sculpting life...Some people often liken architecture to the art of sculpture. The reason for this trend in the analogy may be that the fourth dimension in the two constitutes an important element in the sensory experience of the product, in addition to the fact that both of them take care of the distribution of masses, proportions, and volumes, and weave from the solid masses an “art” that moves. The feelings and emotions of the recipient. But in my opinion, anyone who thinks that architecture only sculpts or creates mass is wrong. The truth is that in architecture,

 the designer’s chisel does not stop only at the borders of mass, but extends to sculpting time, creating movement and rhythm and embodying the feeling of them in interesting and harmonious sequences, each of which creates a lasting impact on the soul.

Inside the building before outside. I may not be exaggerating if I say that the architect carves a complete picture of life into the heart of the building, just like the oyster and the shell that protects it.
