final project

Short project

          For a short project in class I was in a group of four and the assignment was to create a high school that does not have the same qulities as a real one. This place has to be a great learning and educational environment for the kids, but its not essential for the kids to go to school when they can just go to what there mainly interested in.
         For this project my group decide to create a main building for learning facing the others. There was a performing stage and the roof is decorated with different colors and the shape is mutliple half circles. Theres also a huge field for sports. And coed, all girls all boys dorms with restrooms

Short project

          On this day we had a short project to make a house with a common area, childrens area, and adult area. I worked in a group of three and we each did seperate parts of the model. I did the floor plan wich was how the biilding would look like and the others did the model.
As shown in the picture our house had two small buildings in the front for the children and adults and the bigger one on the side was the garage. The brown building in the middle was the common area. And the backyard had a house for a dog.

     The anciant archatects in cenral America were very respectful to all citezens. There temples and pyramids and the combination of both was a wonderfull creation. They were being respectful by adding a side for the dead in there urban planning. And the temples they created were great pyramid of the niches and  Temple with the roof comb chichen itza.
    
Chichen itza means at the mouth of the itza well. Its a Mayan city. Its one of the most powerful cities. It was built on a limestone platiue

Pyramid

          A pyramid is a giant religious building and tomb for the dead. The step pyramid of Djoser (2200 B.C.), Great pyramid of Giza (2550 C.E.), Great temple of Ramess II (1250 B.C.), and Temple of Amun Re, Karnak (1300 B.C.) . These are all  great pyramids.

          The step Pyramid of Djoser was a pyramid built for the pharaoh Djoser in Egypt. He was the egytptian king of the old kingdom. He is reffered o as Horus and was known as Djoser in the new kingdom. It was built in the 27th century B.C. It has a hunge courtyard and feligous structures.The first Egyptian pyramid was made up of six mastabas. A mastabas is a flat roofed rectagular structure and usually burried kings in them. 

Prehistoric Reamains

           There are manu types of prehistoric reamains in different areas of the world. People have have kept these peices of art and use them to form archatecture and as matirials. Example of these prehistoric remains are monoliths wich is a big rock or stone. Dolmens are big structure of rocks. Tumulutu is a plane platform and a large piece of land. These are object that were used to make architecture and buildings. All buildings use materials.
         The Mesopotamian people were one of the first culture that had a civilization. What they accomplished was urban planning wich is a basic plan  of a developed city. Mesopotamians also developed courtyard houses wich is a type of house, and they also developed ziggurats wich are massive buildings that is part of a temple and step pyramid. It was a religious place and at the top there would be shrines for prayer. Its a tomb for the important people like kings.

          An example of a ziggurat is the white temple of Uruk

When we're talking about rhythm and architecture we can compare it to music. In music rhythm is a pattern of beats. It gets boring  if the same thing repeats, so some beats can stand out more than others. For example you can If a window is repeated it wouldn't be as good as having multiple designs. The texture of the building can make it more interesting also. The building can be smooth or rough, Nordvest-kvarteret was a building That was reaping its design and wasn't interesting. Some Buildings show symbolism through its architecture. And its important to show it.
