The title of the conference Defining architectural space – Games and play of architecture should be regarded as a kind of intellectual provocation, given that without a profound comment, these “games and play” should above all be understood as extremely costly ones. However, taking for granted the “game” motif (in the sense of artistic manipulation of the structure’s shape and detail embedded in space), the author has decided to raise the subject of the role that building and finishing materials play in the design concept and practice of the architect.
