There is a border with time by the amount of the light we could see. Applying this view of the border to the city gives a different perspective. For example night in the city is hard to describe it is dark. Neon lights, street lights etc are covered in the city. Artificial lights makes the city a place with 24hours of diverse life and the border between day and night became ambiguous. So by describing the city is dark may not be the meaning of the time and light but more in a emotional and physical level. Nature at night objects are distinguished depending on moon lights or star lights. Meaning observing the objects with our senses, night in the city makes us use the physical instinct with phsycalogical figuration. In this gives the emotion of odd- ness, strange, destructive etc or on the other hand imgination, curiosity, speculation etc from the darkness itself. These parts are becoming a significant part of the aesthetic question ‘In der Nacht’ and leads a certain direction for the project. Where or what is the connection between the natural instinct of the psychological and emotional textures with darkness at night? Night in the city has a more metaphorical relationship with the dark, which means it is not about the phenomenon of the dark- ness but the phenomenon of the city exists differently with the time of darkness. Night in the city has more complexity than night in the nature and contains diverse potential. With this the mentality of night and happenings have a strong relation with human nature and psychology. Therefore the project explores in the city with the diverse potential night time can give.
As a simple example for comparison is Berlin and Seoul. Both cities shows different and noticeable urban planning. Parks in Seoul are focused for convenience using public space in a more direct way. Which brings out a certain beauty and esthetic. On the other hand Berlin parks gives more the com- fort of psychological level. Meaning is considered more part of emotional comfort. It may seem lush and neglect but it has been lot of effort to keep that nature as being nature. Every city has it’s orientation and by this gives a certain color and habit. In doing so it is the moment to research and observe the development and collaboration of the nature and the city.
