When designing a building, the most important factor is inside use of the
building rather than its outside appearance. Do you agree or disagree?
Which is more important, function or appearance? This has always been a
hot topic for many years. As people are becoming more and more practical,
they pay great emphasis on functions of things. But when people are
satisfied with material life, they have spiritual requirement. And aesthetics
is one of their pursuits.
The basic requirement of a building is its inside use. No one buys a house
that he cannot live in only to appreciate its appearance. Modern people are
practical, so we never do things that cannot benefit us. But with the new
techniques and advanced tools, up until now, human beings have no
problem to construct a building to satisfy our practical use, thus in this
sense, on the basis of usefulness, we have a higher requirement of
beautifulness. That is why our world has become more and more beautiful.
However, it also depends on different cases. Building used for exhibition
should not be the same with those used for residence. Great buildings for
exhibitions or used as museums are art works themselves and worthy of our
appreciating. The most famous buildings are the ones that have unique
appearance, and people visit them from all over the world because these
buildings are beautiful. If building is only for us to live in, then there is no
necessity to invite a famous architect to design such an elegant house for us.
Such buildings are also out of our purchasing power.
All in all, the inside use and the appearance are both very important. But it
doesn't mean that we should always give the same to the two. It should
depend on concrete occasions.
