About the building: The Portland Public Service Building, popularly known as the Portland Building, is a 15-story municipal office building located in downtown Portland, Oregon,United States. The Portland Building was a design-build competition sponsored by the city of Portland, Oregon. Located on a 200-foot square downtown block, the building houses the city's minicipal offices. Site offers a rich and special setting characterized by the adjacent City Hall and County Courthouse buildings on two sides, and the public transit mall and the park on the other two sides.

Attic or head. Middle or body Base The design of the building addresses the public nature of both the urban context and the internal program. In order to reinforce the building's associative or mimetic qualities, the facades are organized in a classical three-part division of: FRONT ELEVATION BACK ELEVATION About the building:

Achitectural language, to be built, will always exist within the technical realm. Important to keep the technical expression parallel to an equal and complementary expression of ritual and symbol. A significant architecture must incorporate both internal and external expressions. The external language, which engages inventions of culture at large, is rooted in a figurative, associational and anthropomorphic attitude. PHILOSOPHY Building’s significance with Time & place. Non Architects can recognize Distinct architectural elements Within their Compositions & Relate them in scale to their Own bodies. A hierarchial route is established through the repetitive spaces.

ARCHITECTURE Portland Building, with its distinctive block-like design and square windows, has become an icon of postmodern architecture After many years of neglect, ornament returned. The two obtruding triangular forms are largely ornamental. They exist for aesthetic or their own purpose. Use of sculptural forms, ornaments, Anthropomorphism. Anthropomorphism is the attribution of uniquely human characteristics to non- human creatures and beings, natural and supernatural phenomena, material states and objects or abstract concepts..

WINDOWS It forms the basic element as surface texture, due to their proportion & repetition. ARCHITECTURE Cubical facades treated in the classical three part division or tripartite form with the base, Shaft & cornice.

ARCHITECTURE Façade Uses column as surface treatment & defining the cornice or the head of the building & entrance. Facades are symmetrical & linearity broken by adding vertical bands of colors & windows. Uses square windows but tries to achieve the principles of neoclassical style.

ARCHITECTURE These forms are sculptural and are somewhat playful. These forms are not reduced to an absolute minimum; they are built and shaped for their own sake. The building units all fit together in a very organic way, which enhances the effect of the forms. SCULPTURAL ELEMENTS

ARCHITECTURE It has a typical symmetrical façade which was at the time prevalent throughout Postmodern buildings. The façade is a symbolic picture of a house, looking back to the 18th century. This is partly achieved through the use of symmetry. Playfully extravagant forms and the humour of the meanings the buildings conveyed.
