ANOTHER SCALE OF ARCHITECTURE

From the reading I understand that whenever we design an architecture, we are not creating the architecture alone. We are creating the whole environment, and how can the environment and architecture intergrade together. However, Junya Ishigami is saying that whenever you are intergrading the two things together, you should not intergrade objects that are in the same scale. E.g. If I were to build a house in the forest, I should not just intergrade the house and the trees (same scale). Instead we could intergrade the house with the small animals or bugs (smaller scale) or I could even intergrade with it wind or rain (not obvious) to create a more unique and different outcome.
