About Ecological Architecture

Alan Watts Mountain Center
The process of "evolving" such buildings as mine begins with the instinctual process one employs to select a niche in the land for one's sleeping bag or tent for camping. The process ascends into more complex and rich practical aspects that can be Art....spontaneous and natural. Here the fixated professional and commercial factors which more and more often dominate the human environment are pushed aside.

Architecture is coming closer to music and transcending its tedious, mundane, and pragmatic limits by understanding more and having more technique to wield that understanding by human perception. The advanced implications of this are that, ultimately, the "art of architecture" becomes very pragmatic. This is because the aesthetic and perception become identified as one thing. The qualitative function of-form-space-structure mediates the quantitative entity intelligent.
