Fundamentals of Architecture (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798893661705)

Architecture is both an art and a science that involves the planning, design, and construction of buildings and other structures. The distinct characteristics that define a building or structure are referred to as its architectural style. Notable architectural styles include modern architecture, contemporary architecture, postmodern architecture, brutalism, and the international style. An architectural plan outlines the design and layout of a building, incorporating architectural drawings, calculations, design specifications, project timelines, and related documentation. When technology is integrated with building design, it is referred to as architectural technology. Landscape architecture, on the other hand, involves the design of outdoor spaces, public areas, parks, and landmarks. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts in the field of architecture. It unfolds the innovative aspects of the discipline which will be crucial for the holistic understanding of the subject matter. This book, with its detailed analyses and data, will prove immensely beneficial to professionals and students involved in this area at various levels.
