APPARENT MAGNITUDE and RELATIVE SIZE
If there is an array of like objects of different sizes,
the smaller ones are perceived as being farther
away.
HEIGHT IN PLACE
As we look along a flat plane, objects farther away
appear to be higher, so that we can create the
impression of depth for objects of the same size by
placing them at different heights.
TEXTURE
For irregular surfaces such as rocks or waving
surface of the ocean, there is a gradient of texture
with distance so that the 'grain' becomes finer as
distance becomes greater.

BUILDING ENVELOPE
The envelope of a building is not merely a set of two-
dimensional exterior surfaces, it is a transition space.
This transition spaces, which forms the envelope, is a
place where people indoors experience something of
what the outdoors is like at the moment, and where
people outside get a glimpse of the functions within.
BUILDING INTERIOR
A look at the interior of a building and its dependence
on mechanical and electrical equipment can serve to
illustrate some basic design choices. Away from the
perimeter and its visible interaction with climate and
other outside forces, the interior is potentially an
isolated environment.
