Art and Sciences in Buildings a.k.a architecture in my perspective

Architecture word come from Latin is architectura and also from Greek have they own word is arkhitekton mean by chief and builder, carpenter. Architecture was growth from Neolithic period where by 5500 BC ago at Europe and the earliest culture complex was Cris. Architecture was spread to Anatolia, Syria and Iraq in 8000 BC. Nowadays architecture spread to all around world. Each have they own concept and design and it make their identity of the country. The concept and design of a building relating with function of that building. For example a café with hardwood floors finishes and large windows facing Main Street and located at corner provided ideal place for a morning coffee before stating our routine day. In modern life glass and steel with high rise mixed cubes envelops office will give collaborative, high-energy environment of works. A dark, smoky and thin ceiling presented modern culture life. Colours chosen also have their own meaning represent status, position and attitude. In religion, colours also have own meaning and belief. For life look luxury and rich suitable with gold and silver and match with antique furniture. In religion of Chinese belief red gave luck and happiness in life.

Furthermore, each building serves its purpose practically and uniquely. Architecture, design furnishings, inhabits and location give maximum impact for a building looks aesthetic. In stage of design a building also need consider surrounding and environment. Therefore, each building must coagulate with environment. If the design of the building are extremely design will make contrast with surrounding, hence that building look poor aesthetic value. That about design, structural also include of architecture. Perhaps design of building are sustainable but the structural not recognize for that building will implied negative impact for the building. The structural of building must suitable with purpose of building and also design. In order to fulfil satisfy our imagination and needs should follow each aspect of architecture such as structural and design. Therefore to succeed an excellent and perfect design form, shape, order, landscape, surrounding and services of the building should take seriously.
