THREE COMPONENTS OF ARCHITECTURE:
1. ORIENTATION
• LOCATION
• RELATIONSHIP OF A BUILDING TO ITS NEIGHBORS
• RELATIONSHIP OF BUILDING TO SKY
• RELATIONSHIP OF BUILDING TO GROUND
• HORIZONTAL VS. VERTICAL
• ORTHOGONAL VS. DIAGONAL

THREE TYPES OF SPACE

• PLACE - SPACES
• PATH - SPACES
• TRANSITION - SPACES
THREE TYPES OF SPACE
1. PLACE - SPACE
• MAJOR SPACES THAT PORTRAY A SENSE OF
DEFINITE LOCATION OR POSITION
THREE TYPES OF SPACE
2. PATH - SPACE
• MAJOR TRANSITION SPACES WHICH ARE
DIRECTIONAL SUCH AS CORRIDOR, CONNECTOR,
PASSAGEWAY.
THREE TYPES OF SPACE
2. TRANSITION - SPACES
• MINOR SPACE WHICH PROCESS A CHANGE
FORM ONE CONDITION TO ANOTHER
• JOINT SPACES
• CAN DEFINE A PAUSE BETWEEN SPACES
• CAN ACT AS A SEPARATOR SPACE
INTRODUCING THE VARIOUS FUNCTIONAL
ASPECTS OF ARCHITECTURE
• SITE
• STRUCTURE
• SKIN
• CIRCULATION
• SERVICES
GESTALT THEORY

• “THE WHOLE IS GREATER THAN THE SUM OF ITS


PARTS”
GESTALT THEORY
ELEMENTS OF ARCHITECTURE

•POINT
• CIRCLE
• CYLINDER
• SPHERE
•LINE
•PLANE
•VOLUME
ELEMENTS OF ARCHITECTURE: POINT

•MARKS A POSITION IN SPACE


•STATIC, CENTRALIZED AND DIRECTIONLESS
•IT SERVES TO MARK
ELEMENTS OF ARCHITECTURE: POINT
ELEMENTS OF ARCHITECTURE: POINT  CIRCLE

ELEMENTS OF ARCHITECTURE: LINE

•A POINT EXTENDED
•A LINE IS CRITICAL ELEMENT IN THE
FORMATION OF ANY VISUAL

•THE ORIENTATION OF A LINE AFFECTS ITS ROLE


IN A VISUAL CONSTRUCTION
•A VERTICAL LINE CAN EXPRESS A STATE OF
EQUILIBRIUM
•A HORIZONTAL LINE CAN REPRESENT STABILITY
•AN OBLIQUE LINE MAY BE SEEN AS A VERTICAL
LINE FALLING OR A HORIZONTAL LINE RISING.

ELEMENTS OF ARCHITECTURE:
GENERIC TYPES OF PLANES
• THE GROUND PLANE ULTIMATELY SUPPORTS ALL
ARCHITECTURAL CONSTRUCTION.
• IT CAN BE MANIPULATED TO ESTABLISH A PODIUM FOR A
BUILDING FORM.
• IT CAN BE ELEVATED TO HONOR A SACRED OR SIGNIFICANT
PLACE
• BERMED TO DEFINE OUTDOOR SPACES
• BUFFER AGAINST UNDESIRABLE CONDITIONS
• CARVED OR TERRACED TO PROVIDE A SUITABLE PLATFORM ON WHICH TO
BUILD
• STEPPED TO ALLOW CHANGES IN ELEVATION TO BE EASILY TRAVERSED
