Building a Foundation Learning about Architecture Learning Goals: Architects are artists Basic architectural elements Art is in the world around you, even in everyday objects Design a finished product using separate elements

The art of designing and constructing buildings. Every building is designed by an architect. Seattle Public Library – Seattle, WA What is architecture?

The first known book about architecture was written by a Roman architect, Vitruvius. Romans were well- known for their architecture. Beauty Utility Durability The Coliseum – Rome, Italy Architects still use these today! BUDBUD Hi, I’m Vitruvius! You can call me BUD! I believe every building should be strong in:

Elements of Architecture The Crooked House – Poland To make a building beautiful, useful and durable, architects use 6 basic elements. Massing Texture/Lines Roofline Windows Entrance/Doors Decoration

Massing: Massing is the height, length and form of a building. Can MASSING affect how you feel about a building? How do you feel when you walk up to a skyscraper? How do you feel when you walk up to a home?

Texture/Lines: Texture & lines create interest when looking at the mass. Cubic houses – Rotterdam, Netherlands St. Vitus Cathedral – Prague, Czech Republic What kinds of materials and shapes can I use? Does your house look like this!?

Roofline Rooflines can be very different from building to building Chateau – Mont St. Michel, FranceSkyline, Manhattan, New York What shape is your roof? Do you like my roofline?

Windows Windows often show expression for the building. Heroes Building – Santiago, Chile Kyoto, Japan Open Concepts House Do you like lots of windows or just a few? Do you like big windows or small windows? I think that house is looking at me… And I think it might be hungry!

Entrance/Door Notre Dame Cathedral – Paris, France Farewell Chapel - Krasnja, Slovenia The entrance is very important! How else would you get in the building?

Decoration Decoration is a great way to show style in architecture Marché des Halles – Avignon, France Public Library – Kansas City, Missouri This building is decorated with plants! This library looks like giant books!

Styles change from place to place. Architectural Styles Every building also has a certain style and over time... like hair and fashion Let’s look at 5 different styles.
