WHAT IS

STYLES

Style is the vocabulary we use when we classify buildings according to their appearance, structure, materials, and historic period. Buildings are said to belong to the same classification (or style) when they share many of the same characteristics.

• roof shape

• decorative details

• construction materials

• floor plan

• historic period

The Pulitzer Building

Completed in 1890, the 309-foot tall skyscraper pioneered new technologies.

But the architect, George B. Post, topped his modern new building with a Neoclassical dome.

Flatiron Building

Designed by Daniel H. Burnham and completed in 1902.

It has a steel structure, elevators, central heating, and electrical plumbing pumps.

Facade?

Borrowed - from Renaissance Italy.

Grand Palace Bangkok

Begun by King Rama I in 1782, King Rama III introduced Chinese designs.

King Rama V added Western touches.

The result? Exotic hybrids such as the Chakri Maha Prasat Throne Hall, which combines Palladian arches and classical columns with a traditional Thai roof.

Space define people,people define space

At the beginning, natural elements such as as weather, topography, resource become the main consideration of men building.

Men are not able to define place they want to live in.

Space define people,people define space

Now, there is almost no boundaries and constraints to build.

Materials are globally distributed. Styles are imported and exported.

Men already defining places they want to live in.

We can know, understand and even predict what kind of architecture emerge in other places by studying its space and its people.
