Ancient Roman Architecture
The Architecture of Ancient Rome adopted the external language of classical Greek architecture for their own purposes, which were so different from Greek buildings as to create a new architectural style. The two styles are often considered one body of classical architecture. Sometimes that approach is reproductive, and sometimes it hinders understanding by causing us to judge Roman buildings by Greek standards, particularly when we take a point of view limited to external appearance almost alone. Certainly, the Romans absorbed Geek influence in many aspects closely related to architecture, for example in the introduction and use of the Triclinium in Roman villas as a place and manner of dining. But at this point so too should we note Roman indebtedness to their Etruscan neighbours and forefathers who supplied them with a wealth of knowledge essential for their future architectural solutions, for example in terms of hydraulics and in the construction of arches. Adopting this broader view of architecture we can see that social elements such as wealth and high population densities in cities forced the ancient Romans to discover new (architectural) solutions of their own. For example, the use of vaults and arches together with a sound knowledge of building materials enabled them to achieve unprecedented successes in the construction of imposing structures for public use. Examples include the aqueducts of Rome, the Baths of Diocletian and the Baths of Caracalla, the Pantheon, Rome (largest single span dome for well over a millennium), the basilicas and perhaps most famously of all, the Colosseum. They were reproduced at smaller scale in most important towns and cities in the Empire.

Chinese Architecture Evolution of Chinese Architecture Architecture mirrors the material and aesthetic standards of a society. Classical Chinese architecture is no exception. It is interesting to see how the ancient buildings were developed, with their unique timber structures and decorative styles. Primitive people lived in natural caves before they learned to build houses. The earliest primitive shelter found in China belonged to Peking Man who existed between a million and 300,000 years ago. As human intelligence increased, primitive people learned to excavate caves as their homes. Such cave dwellings were called "den residence" by the ancient historians, and many remain in use in the Loess Plateau of north and northwest China. Gradually, primitive people also learned to make dwellings out of branches and thatch, which were called "nest residence". Chinese mythology ascribed the invention of such dwellings to a demigod named Youchaoshi. Archaeological finds showed that there were mainly two types of "nest" dwellings in neolithic China: one was constructed over a shallow pit, the other on a platform of poles.

Tailoring a Building Design Toward Occupant Emotions (Video)
Often, designers use their instincts to orchestrate novel and harmonious building design features that will serve to not only inspire, but also to connect with people in profound ways. And of course, those designs which connect with their occupants on emotional levels, are the designs that often have the most profound effect.
How a Building System Can Optimize Occupant Brain Power
As you design for your building occupant's age, should you as a designer get more detailed and perhaps more personalized, by also understanding and incorporating information about your occupant's brain age - or brain power , strength between their networked connections? (1)
How an Interactive Holograph Can Simplify Spatial Problems for Building Designers and their Occupants
As a building designer I think it is important for you to ask yourself about how you can make certain functions within the building better - particularly when within a certain room, for instance, where is functions might be highly specialized and complex. And in such cases, those occupants can really feel how "spatial problems" have greater weight, as their consequences can be negative and have great impact. So how can architecture help? And what does the interactive holograph have to do with all of this?

    A manifesto on the subject of parasitic architecture; defined as an adaptable, transient and exploitative form of architecture that forces relationships with host buildings.

    parasitic architecture
    foreword parasitic architecture Parasitic architecture can be defined as an adaptable, transient and exploitive form of architecture that forces relationships with host buildings in order to complete themselves. Parasites cannot sustain their own existence without siphoning energy from the surplus supply demonstrated in host buildings. This website seeks to explore three latent characterisitcs of parasitic architecture exposed during my undergraduate dissertation. Whilst simultaneously, through this process of exploration, aiming to localize the subject of parasitic architecture into a single available resource. The intention is that this manifesto will provide an extensive foundation from which to promote and potentially extend this fascinating subject field. authors note This body of work is composed of threads, not chapters, and is circumnavigated using a sitecloud, as opposed to an index. The work itself has been integrated within the form of a website, instead of a traditional printed thesis, to represent the theory of constant flux and dynamism associated with the topic of parasitic architecture. The sitecloud has been strategically organised to describe the content of the website in a format that does not prescribe the route in which the viewer must take through this body of work.
