            As Latour discussed in the mapping of controversies, architecture could visualize controversy, but not the perspective space. It is a space inhabited by matters of concern, not matters of fact. So the whole aesthetics of representing buildings and the whole idea of seeing, is in question. Rather than taking societies, cultures and buildings for granted, we trace, map and account what architecture and society are really made of. By adding the material multiplicity to the symbolic multiplicity in fire, a much more complex picture emerges therefore we need to map it.we seek to learn how by problmatizing these two fires and thus a parliament could be redrawn.


            Controversies contribute to the becoming of parliament or even architecture. In the architectural discourse, the term 'parliament' takes on a nuanced role within the object-oriented conception. It transcends its traditional understanding as a representation of legislative bodies and becomes a technical expression for 'making things public.' This extends beyond the conventional notion of parliamentary functions, encompassing various mechanisms for unveiling, discussing, and interconnecting diverse perspectives within the architectural domain. Considering the scenario where controversies cease to be ordinary issues that divide stakeholders in the typical state of affairs, but instead focus on the fundamental methods of assembling. In such a context, envisioning an assembly of assemblies or even an assembly of ways of assembling might fall short.  

            As the hegemonic government may attempt to erase the space by erasing its controversies. A parliament that’s nonexistent in this social context is in becoming, by controversies. It calls for a reevaluation of the architectural discourse, challenging established norms and inviting innovative and dynamic explorations into inherent controversies in design and construction(destruction). The 'parliament' transforms into a space not only for aggregating architectural thoughts but also for deconstructing traditional notions, fostering the flow and adaptability of architectural controversies in the public domain.
