The+Built+Environment


 * Architecture** - The Built Environment

Do you think there is beauty in the city? Do we all have the same point of view?

You will learn how to… Express your ideas and feelings about buildings, explore your experiences of walking through spaces, look and discuss the work of architects and designers, and draw some basic building plans. Here is some of the language you will need to know…

• sensory experiences of buildings, e.g. sounds, echoes, temperature, scale, proportion, materials • composition, e.g. viewpoints, perspective, shape, pattern, texture, form, proportion, scale, angle, curve, two-dimensional • architectural detail, e.g. doorway, arches, windows, porch, courtyard, architrave, stanchion, gate, carving, moulding • sculpture, e.g. ceramic, slab-building, coiling, kiln, firing, construction, oxide, three-dimensional, relief, scale, angle, edge, profile, texture, space, shape, curve, carved

Step 1. Research any meanings to the vocabulary above that you do not know. Step 2. Research; begin to collect information about **BUILDINGS**… choose //two iconic buildings// that you know about, one must be **Brazilian** and one must be from a foreign country. Print some images, do some sketches of the buildings, note the construction dates and architects… and any other interesting pieces of information.
