TRIVIA. 

asante's family belongs to a community of witches who's magic are passed down as gifts from their gods. asante is the first child to have been touched by a god's magic from the diallo house in years , shouldering him as the family's miracle. his mother feared that the family legacy would die out soon , as neither she , nor the family members before her , had been chosen to recieve magic. asante was revered as the boy who would save his family's status. 

he was raised with this belief looming over him as he grew , as his powers began to manifest & he was tasked with learning how to control them. on top of that , asante's family didn't have much , & opportunities to commit to magic training were far & few between. he ends up working a part time job as soon as his age allows , slicing his time even further , & forcing a balancing act between studies , a job , training his magic , & contributing to the family. he has always known giving more than recieving. 

despite how little time he had growing up , he still found ways to help his community outside of his household. living in south central had plenty of challenges & asante wanted to fix them , to make his home a better , safer place. on some weekends , he would organize clean-ups of local parks or streets , use whatever money he could to feed a least a few of the unhoused people he saw on the streets , & volunteer for extracurriculars in school that were based on helping the community. 

even though asante had a knack for helping others & loved to do so , he was ( & still is ) a rather reserved individual. he didn't ( & still doesn't ) have many friends because of how serious & blunt he can be , & he doesn't smile very often either. some people even find him intimidating , & those feelings only exacerbated as asante developed & aged. 

routine keeps him steady & consistent & it wasn't until he was eighteen years old that he finally managed to find some time to focus on his magic for real. his mother had found him a mentor , another god - chosen magic user by the name of makalo , who met with asante twice a week for years to strengthen his magic & his bond to Oya, the primordial goddess who chose him. it didn't take makalo long to figure out that asante was nothing short of prodigy , & well-favored by Oya. her gifts to him were the ability to read others & situations & the ability to control storms rooted in the natural world ; rain , lightning , hurricanes , tornaedos , & the like.

as the years went by , asante's gifts only became more powerful. he utilizes his psychic abilities more often than his storm - producing ones , especially in his line of work that deals with government & diplomacy. at age 32 , with the death of his father through natural causes & the retirement of his mother , asante steps up as head of house diallo , therein taking that first step to restructuring & securing his family's legacy.

Rem Koolhaas: National Identity In Architecture

As said on ‘Psychology today’, a person’s “identity encompasses the memories, experiences, relationships and values that create one’s sense of self”. As much as this quote is in reference to a person’s identity it can also be related to architecture. For example, the style of buildings and placement in certain countries and cities can be seen as part of that locations identity as sometimes architects use a places’ history as inspiration for new buildings. Identity plays a large role in everyday life, from personal identity to a companies identity to a nations.

Utilities One explains the link between architecture and personal identity: “Physical spaces and places play a significant role in shaping our well-being and personal identity.” This quote really shows the importance of our surroundings and how it affects our identities. A colourful surrounding could make some very colourful and happy but it could also make others almost ‘rebel’ and dislike colour.

Even though identity is usually recognised within people it is also applicable to buildings, objects and places. Everything has different memories and characteristics which identify them.

Quotes:

“Identity encompasses the memories, experiences, relationships and values that create one’s sense of self” – Psychology Today “Physical spaces and places play a significant role in shaping our well-being and personal identity” – Psychology Today “It should be people-specific and should also represent the way of life of such people” – Chukwuali “Architecture As Identity” – Abel

During my research on identity I came to the realisation that even structures have their own identity and that they also help to create the identity of a place. For example, New York wouldn’t be the same without all its skylines which use their height to show off the powerful and wealthy identity of New York.

Chris Abel is a writer and educator who focuses on architectural practices, based in Malta. He has visited and taught in many big universities across the world. He is the author of a book called ‘Architecture and Identity’ which consists of a variety of his key essays that look into cultural and technological changes that are reshaping modern architecture. ‘Architecture and Identity’ is separated into three separate parts: Science and technology, Critical Theory, and Regionalism and Globalization. Within the section on Regionalism and Globalization he has a sub-section called “Architecture as Identity”. Within this chapter Chris looks at how architecture is used to show a places’ identity.

I strongly agree with, “Architecture as Identity” as a quote itself. This is because it shows that our architecture will and has always been used as a way to show a society or communities identity and what they find important and what they believe in, which they have done for centuries through the use of temples, churches and houses, etc.

I believe that as much as our personal identities are important, the identity of our architecture and what it tells others is and has always been equally as important. It shows off power, beliefs, religions and how our society works with each other.

Throughout my research I found that identity is such a broad subject that it is fairly tricky to pin point it to one specific topic. I tried to focus on identity within architecture as best I could to avoid going completely off-topic.
