Biological Apparatus

All things in this world are a product of the formula: (function x economics) so none of these things are works of art: all art is composition and hence unsuited to a particular end. All life is function and therefor not artistic. The idea of the “composition of a dock”is enough to make a cat laugh! But how is a town plan designed? art or life????

Building is a biological process.
Building is not only a piece of machinery for living in but also a biological apparatus serving the needs of a body and mind.
