The rapid urbanization of the city as a direct consequence of a society's transition has led towards the replacement of old one-family homes with new multi-family buildings where the destroyed houses leave an imprint on the side wall of the new buildings. Even though it is not by itself considered an element of architecture and does not have an identity of its own, the imprint through the use of architecture as a medium accurately manages to reveal that hidden identity. While architecture begins with construction and ends with demolition, this imprint demonstrates an architectural paradox of its sort - its very creation through an inverse process. The imprint exists only within the confines of the moment, as well as the limits of architecture. Precisely that bounding factor of time and space make it an ephemeral appearance in the continual process of spatial changes within a city. The imprint, as a projection of one's private life becomes a part of the public urban space and with its scenic character sets in motion a real urban drama. The private becomes public. The house becomes a showcase.
