This book is the fifth in a series of publications that delve into the architectural narrative of space, exploring the interrelation between the architectural space and the abstract concept of the point and the hypnotic void. It deviates from classical architectural practices and revisits historical ecstatic landmarks, particularly the Pyramid of Cheops, to support its arguments. Thus, this book offers a rejuvenated chronicle encompassing surveys, engineering, and scientific research centered around the essential treasure of all time, the Cheops Pyramid.
The initial chapters elaborate on this renowned structure, portraying it as an icon of virtuosity and a profound repository of knowledge that continues to signify the nomadic importance of the regional and outer-regional strata during the last millennia, carrying connotations of monotheistic literature. Therefore, this literary work aims to establish a pragmatic approach to discerning the void characteristics perceived through modern perspectives. This approach is achieved through a singular notion of the apex point, which encapsulates the essential attributes of this historic icon. This concept circles back to the assertion that firmly establishes itself amidst ongoing discussions about the mystical void, serving as a resolute cornerstone and a foundational element in the discourse on the Void Theory.
