LECTURE 7. Theory of Architecture
Short Description
Descripción: "Geometrical description of Functional Space"_ Ar.Sivaraman Asst.Prof...
Description
Architecture is the art of the hollow; it is defined both from the interior and from the exterior…. A work of architecture which is designed only from the exterior ceases to be architecture and becomes a stage set. Conversely, the reduction to just the spatial characteristics eludes the concrete signs and symbols underlain by its material nature. -Pierre Von Meiss
