Abstract
The objective of this study is to develop a comprehensive theory for the relationship between architecture and technology and to examine the interpretation of technology when it is applied to architecture. In architecture, 'art and craft' and 'doing and saying (presentation)' are closely interwoven. It is sensitive to the external environment in nature, and its boundary has been actively changed. The nineteenth century brought the sudden alteration of culture with the collaboration between science and its applied means or knowledge - "technology". Subsequently, in the twentieth century, the new culture has transformed our normal life style and we can perceive the development of civilization sensuously. The machine as a product of industrial civilization and the symbol of technology has generated new meanings and tradition in tune with this historical trend. Therefore, this study will center on the concept 'technology', which is one of the conspicuous factors in the formation of modern architecture, and it will investigate the relationship between technology and architecture.
