Department History
In 1914, the first courses related to architecture were taught in the Department of Civil Engineering and Mechanic Arts. In 1922, this institution granted its first Bachelor of Architectural Engineering degree. From its beginning until World War II the architectural program maintained a strong engineering bias. Paul H. Gleye assumed leadership of the department in 1998 and set the Department of Architecture and Landscape Architecture on a course of long-term stability. The 2000 NAAB visit resulted in a 6-year accreditation with a focused evaluation scheduled in 2003 to address social equity (number of minority and female students and faculty), human resources (inadequate support staff), physical resources (lack of elevator and substandard studio spaces in two Quonsets), and financial resources (low faculty salaries). The department, with university support, responded to the concerns and passed the 2003 focused evaluation. Between 2000 and 2005, the NDSU architecture program has made significant progress in a number of areas. In 2005 the department initiated a request to replace the Bachelor of Architecture degree with a Master of Architecture degree. The new curriculum totals 170 credit hours including 30 graduate credits. This new degree program was approved by the NAAB as the accredited professional degree offered by the department in 2006.

This remarkable history of late-seventeenth- and early-eighteenth-century France introduces the age when comfort became a new ideal. Home life, formerly characterized by stiff formality, was revolutionized by the simultaneous introduction of the sofa (a radical invitation to recline or converse), the original living rooms, and the very concept of private bedrooms and bathrooms, with far-reaching effects on the way people lived and related to one ... read more

66. Azulejos De Lisboa: Introduction
Colin Manning gives a photographic tour of some of the Portuguese tiles, known as azulejos, which adorn the inside and outside of almost every home in Portugal.
http://www.newmediarepublic.com/azulejos/
Azulejos de Lisboa
The tiles that line the walls of Lisbon tell the tale of the city and of Portugal. These tiles were once perfectly ordered and neat. Each predictably after the other. They once were certain and stood confidently facing the sun and the sea.
But time has designs of its own. It has sought to destroy some and gently wear away at others. Some tiles that were lost could not be replaced. In such places, rather than remove all the tiles and start again, the owners of the buildings simply replaced them with other tiles. This has created a complex patchwork, all the more beautiful for the story it tells.
And although the buildings' owners do the best they can, perhaps time is the real architect. Portuguese tiles, known as azulejos, adorn the inside and outside of almost every home in Portugal. Although introduced to Iberia by Moors, the fashion continued after they left. The Moors restricted themselves arabesque geometric patterns of triangles, squares, and diamonds, probably because many of them belonged to the Sunni brach of Islam which prohibited images of living things.
Portuguese and Flemish artists began to produce tiles in Lisbon in the 16 th Century.

ROMAN ARCHITECTURE AMPHITHEATERS AQUEDUCTS APARTMENT HOUSES ... TRAJAN'S MARKET Roman baths in Paris One of the things the Romans are most famous for is their architecture. The Romans brought a lot of new ideas to architecture , of which the three most important are the arch , the baked brick , and the use of cement and concrete.
Around 700 BC the Etruscans brought West Asian ideas about architecture to Italy, and they taught these ideas to the Romans. We don't have much Etruscan architecture left, but a lot of their underground tombs do survive, and some traces of their temples.
In the Republican period , the Romans built temples and basilicas , but also they made a lot of improvements to their city: aqueducts and roads and sewers . The Forum began to take shape. Outside of Rome, people began to build stone amphitheaters for gladiatorial games
The first Roman emperor, Augustus , made more changes: he built a lot of brick and marble buildings , including a big Altar of Peace and a big tomb for his family, and a big stone theater for plays. Augustus' stepson Tiberius rebuilt the

    A Glimpse on the History of Russian Architecture August 16, 2007
    By the time of adopting Christianity the Old Rus was already good at wooden sculpture, moulding, and embossing. As for architecture, it surely existed, but it is hardly possible to say now at what stage of development it was, since not a single monument of the pre-Christian epoch has survived: something did not stand the test of time, while the major part was presumably destroyed by people. Christians zealously ruined everything that could remind of polytheism. Archeological diggings and researches revealed that Old Rus did not have monumental stone architecture till the end of the 10th century. There used to be wooden constructions and earth-houses. In the early Christian period wooden architecture still prevailed, because wood was more affordable. Mainly these were big town cathedrals that were built of stone.

The empire gradually emerged as a distinct artistic and cultural entity from what is today referred to as the Roman Empire after AD 330, when the Roman Emperor Constantine moved the capital of the Roman Empire east from Rome to Byzantium . Byzantium, " New Rome ", was later renamed Constantinople and is now called Istanbul . The empire endured for more than a millennium , dramatically influencing Medieval and Renaissance era architecture in Europe and, following the capture of Constantinople by the Ottoman Turks in 1453, leading directly to the architecture of the Ottoman Empire

    Rococo Style
    This style received its name in the nineteenth century from French , who used the word to designate in whimsical fashion the old shellwork style ( style rocaille ), then regarded as Old Frankish , as opposed to the succeeding more simple styles. Essentially , it is in the same kind of art and decoration as flourished in France during the regency following Louis XIV's death, and remained in fashion for about forty years (1715-50). It might be termed the climax or degeneration of the Baroque, which, coupled with French grace , began towards the end of the reign of Louis XIV to convert architectural construction than elsewhere, it is not so much a real style as a new kind of decoration, which culminates in the resolution of architectural forms of the interiors (pilasters and architraves) by arbitrary ornamentation after the fashion of an unregulated, enervated Baroque, while also influencing the arrangement of space , the construction of the , the portals, the forms of the doors and windows . The Rococo style was readily received in Germany , where it was still further perverted into the arbitrary, unsymmetrical, and unnatural, and remained in favour until 1770 (or even longer); it found no welcome in

    Mecklenburg-Vorpommern german Gothic Style Brick Buildings
    in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern
    In the latter half of the 12th. century Gothic brick architecture began to develop in its own style in North Germany, especially in Mecklenburg and Vorpommern.
    It counts among the foremost achievements in the history of European culture.
    Mighty brick buildings, such as monasteries, churches, town halls, residences and city gates became landmarks in the Hanseatic cities of Wismar, Rostock, Stralsund and Greifswald on the Baltic Coast and in other cities inland such as Schwerin, Bad Doberan, Gstrow, Neubrandenburg and Anklam.
    Viewing the many examples of this type of architecture is an experience in itself. D-17033 Neubrandenburg City Gates
    The four mighty brick built gates with their elegant facades stand on stone bases and are a part of the city fortifications. They are important examples of historic building and lend the city its epithet of the "City with four gates" Friedlnd Gate
    The oldest of the four gates (early 14th. century) and also the best preserved. It was reinforced in the 16th. century with a massive half cruciform bulwark, the so called Zwingel, as a defence against artillery. It houses a centre for art studies nowadays.
