    The architect Thomas Thiis-Evensen discusses archetypes in architecture and how they represent universal human experiences and needs. He describes four archetypes - the hearth as a symbol of family and community, the path as a representation of transition and journey, the wall as providing enclosure and definition of space, and the skylight as connecting interior spaces to the heavens above. These archetypes have been employed across cultures and periods to address fundamental aspects of human habitation and experience.
