Hypothetigraphy as Architectural Image Diagrams (Case: Wayang Museum, Jakarta, Indonesia)
Keywords:
hypothetigraphy diagram, architectural image, Hypothetigraphy Diagrams, the Wayang Museum in JakartaAbstract
This paper presents a spatial study using a model of diagrammatic description that is based on hypothetigraphy. In doing so, it highlights the descriptive nature of phenomenology and the significance of architectural images. The term hypothetigraphy is a neologism coined by Manfredo Massironi to describe a particular kind of graphic that fosters relations between the structural entities of things and their abstract properties. It is thus an intermediary between representational and non-representational visual forms. The term is used here as an entry point for developing a flexible interpretative model of diagrammatic description based on a case study of the Wayang Museum (Puppet Museum) in Jakarta, Indonesia. This study illustrates how hypothetigraphy diagrams of the Wayang Museum enable the identification of spatial thresholds that lead to a deeper understanding of architectural images.
