ARCH DES Flashcards
THE ART AND SCIENCE OF DESIGNING AND CONSTRUCTING BUILDING.
ARCHITECTURE
THE PRODUCT RESULT OF ARCHITECTURAL WORK, BUILDINGS, EFFECTIVELY.
ART
A STYLE OR METHOD OF BUILDING CHARACTERISTIC OF A PEOPLE, PLACE, OR TIME.
SCIENCE
THE CONSCIOUS ACT OF FORMING THINGS RESULTING IN A UNIFYING OR COHERENT STRUCTURE.
CONSTRUCTING
THE PROFESSION OF DESIGNING BUILDINGS AND OTHER HABITABLE ENVIRONMENTS.
DESIGNING
THE CONSCIOUS USE OF SKILL, CRAFT, AND CREATIVE IMAGINATION IN THE PRODUCTION OF WHAT IS BEAUTIFUL, APPEALING OR OF MORE THAN ORDINARY SIGNIFICANCE.
ART
A BRANCH OF KNOWLEDGE DEALING WITH A BODY OF FACTS OR TRUTHS OBTAINED BY DIRECT OBSERVATION, EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION, AND METHODICAL STUDY, SYSTEMATICALKLY ARRANGED AND SHOWING THE OPERATION OF GENERAL LAWS.
SCIENCE
THE WORD “ARCHITECTURE” ORIGINATES FROM THE _ CULTURE.
GREEK
ARCHITECTURE DERIVED FROM THE WORD _.
ARKHITEKTON
TO COMPOSE A PLAN FOR A BUILDING.
DESIGN
ARKHITEKTON WHICH MEANS _ IN SIMPLE TERMS.
MASTER BUILDER
THE ARCHITECTURAL CONCEPT OF A BUILDING AS REPRESENTED BY PLANS, ELEVATIONS, RENDERINGS, AND OTHER DRAWINGS.
DESIGN
ANY VISUAL CONCEPT OF A MAN-MADE OBJECT, AS OF A WORK OF ART OR A MACHINE.
DESIGN
THREE PRINCIPLES OF ARCHITECTURE.
VENUSTAS, FIRMITAS, UTILITAS
BEAUTY . DELIGHT
VENUSTAS
STRENGTH . FIRMNESS
FIRMITAS
UTILITY . COMMODITY
UTILITAS
ANY BUILDING MUST BE STRONG ENOUGH TO PROTECT ITSELF AND OTHERS FROM NATURAL DISASTERS.
FIRMNESS OF ARCHITECTURE
ARCHITECTURE PROVIDES FUNCTIONALITY FOR PEOPLE TO SUSTAIN THEIR EVERYDAY NEEDS AND LIFESTYLE.
FUNCTIONALITY AND PRODUCTIVITY.
APPEARANCE PLAYS A VITAL IF NOT THE MOST IMPORTANT ROLE IN THE OVERALL BUILDING.
THE BEAUTY BEHIND ARCHITECTURE
ARCHITECTURE NEED TO ENSURE THAT, WHATEVER THEY ARE DESIGNING, IT NEEDS TO LOOK AESTHETICALLY PLEASING AS THIS IS THE FIRST THING PEOPLE SEE WHEN LOOKING AT THE STRUCTURE.
THE BEAUTY BEHIND ARCHITECTURE
1 - SITE ANALYSIS
2 - ZONING ANALYSISD
3 - PROJECT SCOPE
4 - BUILDING PROGRAM
5 - PROJECT BUDGETING
6 - PROJECT SCHEDULE
7 - SELECTION OF THE PROJECT TEAM
PRE-DESIGN PHASE
THE FIRST PHASE OF DESIGN.
SCHEMATIC DESIGN
THE ARCHITECT AND THE CLIENT DISCUSS ALL REQUIREMENTS NEEDED FOR THIS PROJECT GOING FORTH.
SCHEMATIC DESIGN
A LOT OF RESEARCH IS DONE IN THIS STEP, AS THE ARCHITECT MUST ANALYZE THE BUILDING ZONES AS WELL AS TO ESTABLISH THE LOCATION AND SIZE OF THE BUILDING.
SCHEMATIC DESIGN
THIS PHASE INVOLVES THE SELECTION OF MATERIALS NEEDED, SUCH AS INTERIOR FINISHES.
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT PHASE
THE ARCHITECT AND ENGINEERS WORK CLOSELY TOGETHER IN PHASE, AS THE DRAWING IS REVISED BY THE ARCHITECT, SPECIFYING THE DETAILS.
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT PHASE
ARE THE BASIC COMPONENTS THAT ARCHITECTS UTILIZE TO DESIGN EFFICIENT AND VISUALLY APPEALING BUILDING AND STRUCTURES.
ELEMENTS OF ARCHITECTURE
THE OVERALL SHAPE AND APPEARANCE OF A STRUCTURE, AND ITS MASS, VOLUME, AND SILHOUETTE.
FORM
THE AREAS WITHIN AND AROUND A STRUCTURE, INCLUDING ROOMS, CORRIDORS, AND OUTDOOR AREAS.
SPACE
AN IMPORTANT ELEMENT THAT CAN AFFECT THE MOOD, ATMOSPHERE, AND FUNCTIONALITY OF A SPACE.
LIGHT
THE SUBSTANCES USED TO CONSTRUCT A STRUCTURE, SUCH AS CONCRETE, WOOD, BRICK, OR STELL.
MATERIAL
AN ELEMENT THAT CAN AFFECT THE MOOD, ATMOSPHERE, AND APPEARANCE OF A SPACE.
COLOR
THE SIZE OF A DESIGN IN RELATION TO IT’S SURROUNDINGS, WITH THE GOAL OF CREATING A SENSE OF UNITY AND COHESIVENESS.
SCALE
1 - VERTICAL BALANCE
2 - RADIAL BALANCE
3 - ASYMMETRICAL BALANCE
4 - SYMMETRICAL BALANCE
5 - PROPORTION AND SCALE
6 - EMPHASIS
7 - GRADATED RHYTHM
8 - RANDOM RHYTHM
9 - REGULAR RHYTHM
10 - HARMONY
11 - CONTRAST
PRINCIPLES OF ARCHITECTURE
OCCURS WHEN WE CAN DIVIDE THE COMPOSITION VERTICALLY INTO TWO HALVES.
VERTICAL BALANCE
IS WHEN THE ELEMENTS RADIATE FROM THE COMMON CENTER, RADIAL EQUILIBRIUM IS ACHIEVED.
RADIAL BALANCE
THIS FORM OF EQUILIBRIUM PRODUCES A STRONG FOCUS POINT, AND THE VIEWER’S GAZE IS NATURALLY DRIVEN INWARD INTO THE CENTER.
RADIAL BALANCE
/RADIAL EQUILIBRIUM
ALSO KNOWN AS INFORMAL BALANCE, HAPPENS WHEN THERE ARE DIFFERENT ASPECTS TO BE EXHIBITED ON BOTH SIDES OF A COMPOSITION.
ASYMMETRICAL BALANCE
CAN DIVIDE THE CENTRAL AXIS INTO TWO IDENTICAL SIDES.
SYMMETRICAL BALANCE
IS NOTHING BUT THE SIZE OF EACH ELEMENT ON THE DESIGN AND PROPORTION IS THE SIZE OF AN ELEMENT IN COMPARISON WITH THE OTHER OBJECT OF THE ELEMENT, 3 IS TO 5 RATIOS IS CONSIDERED TO BE THE GOLDEN MEAN.
PROPORTION AND SCALE
AN UNUSUAL ELEMENT IS ADDED TO THE DESIGN TO CREATE THE IMPORTANCE OF UNIQUENESS OF A DESIGN TO CAPTURE THE ATTENTION OF A VIEWER.
EMPHASIS
IN THIS KIND OF RHYTHM ELEMENT IS IDENTICAL.
GRADATED RHYTHM
HOWEVER, WITH EACH STEP, THE SIZE OF THE ELEMENT IS INCREASING, OR DECREASING WITH EACH REPITITION.
GRADATED RHYTHM
OPPOSITE OF REGULAR RHYTHM.
RANDOM RHYTHM
IN THIS KIND OF RHYTHM, ELEMENTS ARE REPEATED AT REGULAR INTERVALS IN THE DESIGN.
RANDOM RHYTHM
AS THE NAME IMPLIES, REFERS TO THE REPITITION OF AN ELEMENT IN A DESIGN’S INTERVAL.
REGULAR RHYTHM
IS ANOTHER NAME FOR UNITY.
HARMONY
THE UNITY PRINCIPLE GIVES A DESIGN A SENSE OF ORDER OR WHOLENESS.
HARMONY
IT CAN ONLY BE ACCOMPLISHED IF ALL OF THE DESIGN ASPECTS ARE IN SYNC WITH ONE ANOTHER.
HARMONY
IS WHEN TWO OR MORE ELEMENTS IN A DESIGN OR OF DIFFERENT QUALITIES, CAN BE ACHIEVED IN FORM LIKE COLOR, TEXTURE, SIZE, PROPORTION, SHAPE, MOVEMENT, ETC.
CONTRAST
1- ANALOGY
2 - METAPHOR AND SIMILES
3 - ESSENCES
4 - PROGRAMATIC
5 - IDEALS
DESIGN CONCEPTS
LOOKING AT OTHER THINGS.
ANALOGY
LOOKING AT ABSTRACTIONS.
METAPHORS AND SIMILES
LOOKING BEYOND THE PROGRAMMATIC NEED.
ESSENCES
LOOKING AT THE STATED REQUIREMENTS.
PROGRAMMATIC
LOOKING AT THE UNIVERSAL VALUE.
IDEALS
IS ACHIEVED WHEN ALL THE DIFFERENT ELEMENTS IN A DESIGN WORK TOGETHER TO CREATE A UNIFIED WHOLE.
UNITY
UNTIL THE RISE OF THE MODERN MOVEMENT IN THE FIRST HALF OF THE 20TH CENTURY, IT WAS ASSUMED BY CLIENTS AND ARCHITECTS ALIKE THAT ALL THE GREAT _ OF THE WORLD HAD ALREADY BEEN BUILT.
ARCHITECTURE
THE TASK OF THE _ WAS TO FIGURE OUT WHICH PREVIOUS BUILDING WAS THE APPROPRIATE MODEL FOR THE NEW BUILDING BEING DESIGNED.

TYPES OF CONCEPTS
ANALOGY EXAMPLE
FACE HOUSE
KAZUMASA YAMASHITA
KYOTO, JAPAN
TO TAKE THE SAME SHAPE OF SOMETHING WITHOUT ANY CHANGE.
SUPERFICIAL ANALOGY
TO MAKE AS STRUCTURE OF BUILDING FROM A SHAPE OR SOMETHING.
STRUCTURAL ANALOGY
COMBINATION OF BOTH S.A AND S.A.
HOLISTIC ANALOGY
AN _ IS MORE LIKE A SIMILE.
ANALOGY
AN ANALOGY IS MORE LIKE A _.
SIMILE
A SIMILARITY BETWEEN LIKE FEATURES OF TWO THINGS ON WHICH A COMPARISION MAY BE BASED.
ANALOGY
IS A COGNITIVE PROCESS OF TRANSFERRING INFORMATION FROM A PARTICULAR SUBJECT (SOURCE) TO ANOTHER PARTICULAR SUBJECT (TARGET), AND A LINGUISTIC EXPRESSION CORRESPONDING TO SUCH PROCESS.
ANALOGY
IS MORE LIKE AN ALLEGORY.
METAPHOR
IT IS AN IMPLICIT SIMILE.
METAPHOR
IT IS AN EXPLICIT SIMILE.
ANALOGY
IT IS LITERALLY FALSE.
METAPHOR
IT IS LITERALLY TRUE.
ANALOGY
NEED A BIT MORE IMAGINATION TO INTERPRET.
METAPHOR
ARE READILY APPARENT.
ANALOGY
METAPHOR EXAMPLE
NOTRE DAME
DU HAUTE-RON CHAMP CHAPEL
LE CORBUSIER
FRANCE 1955
THE LARGEST AND THE MOST CRUCIAL PHASE OF THE DESIGN PROCESS.
CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS
THIS IS WHEN ALL THE PLANS ARE FINALIZED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF BUILDINGS.
CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS
THIS ENTAILS FINDING AND SECURING A CONTRACTOR TO PROCEED WITH THE CONSTRUCTION OF BUILDING.
BIDDING
BIDS ON THE PROJECT ARE SUBMITTED ON BEHALF OF THE CONTRACTORS.
BIDDING
ONCE A CONTRACTOR HAS BEEN SELECTED FOR THE JOB, THE ARCHITECT, ENGINEERS, CLIENT, AND CONTRACTOR DISCUSS ANY QUESTION ASKED BEFORE CONSTRUCTION OF THE PROJECT BEGINS.
BIDDING
THE FINAL AND LONGEST. (DESIGN PROCESS)
CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION
IT INVOLVES THE ACCOUNTING SECTOR OF THE PROJECT, WHICH IS MANAGED BY A CHARTERED ACCOUNTANT.
CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION
WHILST THIS IS PROCESSING, THE CONSTRUCTION CONTINUES.
CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION
THE ARCHITECT VISITS THE SITE AND OVERVIEWS THE PROJECT, ENSURING THAT THE CONTRACTOR IS FOLLOWING WITH PLAN DISCUSSED.
