Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book traces the principles of design in architecture from the earliest structures to the refined temples of ancient Greece. The author argues that utility was the foundation of all architectural designs, but that over time, the desire for beauty and grandeur led to the development of more elaborate and ornamental styles. The book examines the influence of materials and construction techniques on architectural form, and discusses the relationship between the useful and the graceful in design. It also explores the origins of the three classical Greek architectural ordersâ"the Doric, Ionic, and Corinthianâ"and their subsequent development and influence on Western architecture. Through a detailed analysis of specific buildings and architectural elements, the author provides a comprehensive understanding of the principles that have shaped the built environment throughout history. This book is an essential resource for architects, architectural historians, and anyone interested in the origins and evolution of architectural design. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334231568_0
