The function of the building would be the dominant factor‚ aesthetic considerations‚ though present to some small degree‚ being quite minimal. Local materials would be used as a matter of course‚ other materials being

Allen) “A diagram architecture is not necessary an architecture produced through diagrams.... Instead‚ diagram architecture is an architecture that behaves like a diagram‚ indifferent to the specific means of its realization." (Par. 13) This paragraph points out the answer that beginners architecture students struggled to find. In the process of design‚ I try to find the potential through the translation from reality to the abstract diagram. While I wonder if the architecture should carefully be

Geometry PJ Architecture and Geometry Architecture and geometry are perfect complements of each other they go hand to hand in so many ways let’s discuss some of these ways. Architecture has geometry written all over it if geometry never existed Architecture wouldn’t have existed either. First of all geometry is the reason that we can calculate and measure the sizes and shapes of certain structures for us to use. Geometry allows us pin point exactly how much more we may need or less ‚ without

Indian architecture encompasses a wide variety of geographically and historically spread structures‚ and was transformed by the history of the Indian subcontinent. The result is an evolving range of architectural production that‚ although it is difficult to identify a single representative style‚ nonetheless retains a certain amount of continuity across history. The diversity of Indian culture is represented in its architecture. It is a blend of ancient and varied native traditions‚ with building

[pic] Figure 1: Pipes and Filters A degenerate case of a pipeline architecture occurs when each filter processes all of its input data as a single entity.1 In this case the architecture becomes a “batch sequential” system. In these systems pipes no longer serve the function
