|Project 1.1.3 Architectural Styles |

Introduction

Typically, people associate pyramids with Egypt. However, pyramids have been created all over the world. What makes us associate a style with a certain culture or time period? Recognizable architectural styles are often a result of nearby building material, weather, and culture.

Procedure

1. For your style, find and record the following:

a. Identify the decade or years of most common use and when first used

b. Identify the typical number of stories for the structure

c. Identify and describe the building materials used in the style

d. Identify and describe the Distinctive features of the style that make it identifiable and unique; list the three most common

e. Identify and describe how the purpose of the structure, site location, the use of lines, form, color, texture, rhythm, balance, proportion, and unity are used in the architectural style.

f. Provide at least three examples of the style; include an example from the local area if appropriate, using sketches if digital images are not available.

g. Provide information about the use of the style, such as its use as a residential, industrial, or commercial structure, architects who may have used the style, and other information that will enhance learning about the style.

h. Identify and describe the location, state, or country, where this style is most commonly used.

2. Create a presentation with only four slides. Slide one can only have the title of the presentation and your name. Slides two and three should highlight and summarize your findings. Slide four should cite your references.

Conclusion

1. How is the culture of the people reflected in the architectural style?

3. What are the advantages and disadvantages of building a home with your chosen style today?
