Walter Gropius developed a particular vision of “total architecture”. He made this concept the key to his work and the work of others who studied under him at a school called, The Bauhaus. It taught that all art forms, from simple to complex should be designed as a unit.…
In rudimentary architecture the human presence can seem subject to the domination of nature. Architecture cannot disengage it self from the natural and human factors, it never do so, it function rather is to bring nature ever close to us. Everything should be on the premise of respect for the natural. And consider…
Society can shape the architecture of the area as people build structures according to local customs or styles. Available land and and resources could impact or influence where architectures are placed and the material they are made from. Different societies and places will also have different building restrictions. All of these different reasons will affect and shape architecture in their own…
Architecture begins with geometry. Since earliest times, architects have relied on mathematical principles. From the pyramids in Egypt to the new World Trade Center tower in New York City, great architecture uses the same essential building blocks as your body and all living things.…
Thus we turn to Alberti’s argument that, ‘grace of form could never be separated or divorced from suitability for use.’ In short, it summarises his belief that what we construct should be appropriate to its use- and it is this that makes a building ‘graceful’ or beautiful. This is the underlying dispute that forms the basic foundations of Alberti’s De re aedificatoria (On the Art of Building), written around 1440 and arranged into ten books. Alberti’s treatise on architecture eventually became his most influential work in Latin, and it is believed to have begun as a commentary on Vitruvius’ De aedificatoria. It was also the assimilation of other writers ' ideas since antiquity,…

For this reason architectural meaning can never be objectified, reduced to functions, formal or stylistic formulas. “Architecture tries to create a place for people and current human needs in anticipation of tomorrow.” The interior of St. Paul’s effectively captures this idealism emphasized by the uncluttered ceiling and clear glass windows, which lighten the spaces, inspiring hope a precarious time. Contemporarily, the duty of care has evolved and the focal point has become the pursuit of earns. “Architecture must reawaken in itself the potential to communicate ideas about human identity and reestablish a relationship with cultural identity.”…
Architecture is the art and profession of planning, designing and constructing form, space and ambiance to reflect a functional and aesthetic environment. People spend most of every day in a building of some kind. Whether it is a place to live, work, play, learn, worship, shop, or eat, buildings influence and shape people’s everyday lives. No matter if these places are private or public; indoors or out, rooms, skyscrapers, or complexes, architects are responsible for the designing of these structures. Architects are skilled in the arts and sciences of building designs and develop and turn concepts for structures into reality. Throughout history there have been many fields…
Two of the major differentiation between Roman houses and Greek houses is that the Greeks separated male and female space, while in Roman homes this separation is non-existent, and the Romans also do not separate spaces on the basis of age either. This is not only a contrast between the homes of Romans and Greeks but also shows a notable difference in their cultures. Hadrill highlights the righting of Vitruvius and how he illustrates these differences in Roman and Greek homes, but another interesting point that Vitruvius makes is that the patron should insure that the architect that is hired to undertake the job should be an honest and honorable man. This focus on social sensibility is very Roman in nature, and similarly to the two instances above illustrates a key difference not only in the homes of Romans and Greeks, but more importantly a difference in their cultures. I found this statement by Vitruvius important because he is a making a point that the patrons should make partially make a decision on what architect they choose not based on skill rather, but rather based on if he is honorable.…

“Architecture begins to matter when it goes beyond protecting us from elements, when it begins to say something about the world—when it begins to take on the qualities of art.” (Goldberger)…
The Greeks gave Rome scientific awareness, art, and rhetoric that stayed for Rome to govern intelligently. Roman busts, like the Greeks, showed an attraction for realistic depiction, but Rome created their busts even more realistically. Rome typically portrayed their person near the end of their life while Greeks showed them at their youth. Vitruvius wrote On Architecture, the only product of its type to have outlasted ancient times; it turn out to be very important when Renaissance artists became fascinated in classical design. The work attains its supporter's architectural desires, dealing with construction techniques, classical orders, and the procedures of proportion (Sayre 253).…

Besides, Descartes is convinced that there is often not as much perfection in works composed of several pieces and made by the hands of diverse masters as in those on which one master alone has worked. In this context, he states that buildings built by a single architect are usuallly more beautiful than those that have been constructed by many architects.…
