Abstract
This study is a critical research on Kisho Kurokawa’s architecture. His concepts are diverse and complex, but also his theories are to help the development of Japanese contemporary architecture. The worldwide renowned Japanese architect Kisho Kurokawa’s architectural concept can be divided into three main concepts as metabolism, metamorphosis and symbiosis. From the metabolism movement of the 1960s through his pursuit of such theories as intermediate zones, ambiguity, ambivalence and the philosophy of metamorphosis, symbiosis, he has always employed the concepts and vocabulary of life systems, biology, and ecology. He intentionally took the terms as ‘metabolism’ ‘metamorphosis’ and ‘symbiosis’ from change, growth, intermediate space, relation and abstract symbolism which transcends the Western binomial opposition or dualism. These are all expressions of the most important features of life systems or the life principle. The intermediate zone, ambiguity, multivalence are theories that work as media in changing process levels to three main concepts and these are used as media of metamorphosis which embody symbiosis. The intermediate zone or abstract interrelation play an important role in achieving the symbiosis of interior and exterior space. But his concepts and theories of architecture are unclear and difficult because these are interweaved as a rhizome....
