SPACE Flashcards
Beauty, using the principles of
design. architecture as distinguished
from the mere building
or Engineering structure.
CONTRIBUTIONS OF
AESTHETICS
Consist of forms and spaces whose positions in space and relationship with one another are regulated by a three dimensional pattern or field, such as a skeletal structural system of columns and beams.
GRID FORMS
uses proximity to relate its spaces to one another. It often consists of repetitive cellular spaces that have similar functions and share a common visual trait, orientation.
CLUSTERED FORMS
Compositions of linear forms
that extends outward from central
space or form in a wheel
manner.
RADIAL FORMS
Consists of a number of secondary forms clustered about dominant central parent forms, Centrality, can embody sacred places.
CENTRALIZED FORMS
Services to occupants (utility, function) How high would be the kitchen storage, reach, How big the furnishings will be to learn the size of the enclosed space.
USE OF SPACE
Consists of forms arranged segmentally
in a row of repetitive
space (wall path)
LINEAR FORMS
Strength or permanence and
security.
COLLABORATION AND
USE OF MATERIALS
Sequence of spaces
Configuration of space
Straight path, primary organizing element. Curvilinear or segmented, have branches or form a loop.
Linear
Linear path extending from or terminating at a central
common point.
RADIAL
Single, continuous path originates from a central point, revolves around it & becomes increasingly distant from it.
SPIRAL
2 sets of parallel paths that intersect at regular intervals & create square or rectangular fields.
GRID
paths that connect
established paths
NETWORK
Building employs combination of all the configuration of space
