 ART & ARCHITECTURE
Architecture is an art form that reflects how we present
ourselves across the earth’s landscape, and, like other
expressive mediums, it changes with styles, technologies
and cultural adaptations.

Architecture not only provides worldly needs of shelter,

workspace and storage but also represents human ideals
in buildings like courthouses and government buildings
and manifestations of the spirit in churches and temples.

Traditional architecture has survived over thousands of

years in one form or another, while contemporary design
offers new approaches in how we use materials and
technology to shape the look of our environment.

 ART & ARCHITECTURE

The Relationship Between Art and Architecture

Art and architecture have a deep connection that unites them

through their design, their designer, and their individual
meanings. Both are created using the same organizing
principles, the same visual elements, and the same
engagement of the senses.

Art and architecture both have meaning. They are

simultaneously expressive and communicative. The artist
"shapes" an object to visually express a complex set of ideas,
and the audience receives that expression. Architects create
livable or usable spaces, but their architectural structures are
also significant beyond their functionality.

 ART & ARCHITECTURE
Formal Analysis of Art and Architecture
Formal analysis is an integrated study of all the formal
qualities of an art object to see how they all work together.
We can then see how they add to the overall meaning of
that piece of art. Formal qualities add to an artwork because
they are aesthetically satisfying. Looking at art is a different
experience from looking at the general environment, which
is visually disjointed and disorganized.

The formal qualities of artworks make them satisfying visual

experiences, which adds considerable power to art. Size,
scale, texture and value are all formal elements in art that
contribute to a works meaning. Size, scale and value are
formal elements in architecture that enhance the meaning
of a building.

Architecture
 ART & ARCHITECTURE
Architecture, the art and technique of designing and building,
as distinguished from the skills associated with construction.
The practice of architecture is employed to fulfill both
practical and expressive requirements, and thus it serves both
utilitarian and aesthetic ends. Although these two ends may
be distinguished, they cannot be separated, and the relative
weight given to each can vary widely.

Because every society— settled or nomadic—has a spatial

relationship to the natural world and to other societies, the
structures they produce reveal much about their environment
(including climate and weather), history, ceremonies, and
artistic sensibility, as well as many aspects of daily life.

ART & ARCHITECTURE APPRETIATION

Architecture is the art and science of

designing structures and spaces for
human use. Architectural design is
an art form realized through
considerations of spatial design and
aesthetics. Related to sculpture,
architecture creates three-
dimensional objects that serve
human purposes and forms visual
relationships with the surrounding
areas.

ART & ARCHITECTURE APPRETIATION

Related to sculpture, architecture creates three-

dimensional objects that occupy a given space and
create a visual relationship with the space around
them. The differences between the sculpture and
architecture are in their scale and utility.

Early human structures provided shelter from the

elements. As hunter-gatherer societies transitioned to
farming they made more permanent shelters,
eventually formed communities, towns and cities. For
thousands of years, architecture reflected the
specific environment and materials available in any
given region, including rock caves or huts of wood,
soil and brick. Many were assemblages of materials
like grasses, leaves and animal hides. Nomadic
people still utilize these materials.

https://learn.saylor.org/mod/page/view.php?id=4443
 ART & ARCHITECTURE APPRETIATION
In simple design terms, architecture adheres to the
dictum that "form follows function". Architecture's function
reflects different human needs. For example,
Warehouses take the shape of large squares or
rectangles because they need only to enclose a space
that protects and stores products and materials in the
most efficient manner.
A home is designed with other functions in mind,
including cooking, resting, cleaning and entertaining. So
the interior design of a home includes specialized areas
for these different functions.
A church or school design would have their own set of
spatial requirements because they provide for large
groups of people at once.

 ART & ARCHITECTURE APPRETIATION
Architecture solves problems concerning the use of
space, interior design and the landscape that
surrounds it. The limitations imposed on architecture
by the laws of physics are solved to a large extent
by engineering. The greatest limitations on design
are the physical loads exerted by a structure's
weight. Compression loads refer to vertical weight
and shear loads travel at an angle or horizontally.
Buildings need stable foundations and framing
systems that support the spanning of open space.

 ART & ARCHITECTURE APPRETIATION

Embrace the totality of architecture.

Appreciating architecture really begins with understanding what it is and what it isn’t. When people
think of the term, they usually conjure up cathedrals, historic governmental buildings, or quaint old-
timey towns. The truth, however, is that architecture is woven into all parts of our lives — in great
ways through boldly designed office spaces and cutting-edge modernist residences, but mostly in
mundane, half-assed, contractor-designed suburban homes, lazy retail spaces and budget-driven,
functional corporate islands. When you look at a building you should be able to tell (or innately feel)
in a moment whether it’s a thoughtful piece of design or a straight-up hack job.

 ART & ARCHITECTURE APPRETIATION
Grasp the building’s purpose — and
ambition. The key to understanding how
architecture functions is simple: awareness.
How is the building working? What’s it doing?
How well does it do its primary job, and what is
the extra je ne sais quoi that it brings to the
table? You can spend hours reading up on
architectural symbolism and design styles with
any significant building, but nothing replaces
simply going there and divining for yourself
what the building actually does.

 ART &
ARCHITECTURE APPRETIATION

“So many factors contribute to this — light, materials,

proportions, tactile qualities, and most important, scale,”
said architecture interpreter Frances Anderton, who
hosts KCRW’s DnA: Design and Architecture show in Los
Angeles. “If you walk into Chartres Cathedral, you’re in this
marvelous space, and it’s almost a physiological
experience. When you go in a museum, it tries to be
somehow elevating for the person wandering in the space.”

So when you walk up to a building, assess whether it’s

inviting or intimidating, rich in details or spartan in design,
functionally intuitive or a baffling mystery. All of those will
impact the ultimate effect of a piece of architecture.

 ART & ARCHITECTURE APPRETIATION

Tune in to your emotions. Grasping

how you feel and what you like or
dislike about a building will help
you understand the architecture
better, and help imprint the
impact in your psyche. Of course,
buildings have different impacts
on different people.

The Getty Center, also in L.A., is another example of an emotionally polarizing work of
architecture. It’s a gleaming white hilltop campus of museums, conference spaces, and
offices designed by Ricard Meier and opened in 1997, and famous for its crisp edges,
spectacular views and alternating open and closed configuration. “You go in there and you
wonder, is it a building, or a landscape, or an open space?” Anderton noted. “It’s all of
those, and many people find that it’s not the buildings themselves that impact them the
most, but the spaces between the buildings — the little passageways, the viewing platforms,
the different vantage points, of both the city below and the buildings themselves.”
 ART & ARCHITECTURE APPRETIATION

Look for transcendence. Great architecture, then, is holistic and unified — meant to both convey
something and generate a feeling in those who inhabit it. Nowhere is this more profoundly
encapsulated than at Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater, outside Pittsburgh. The 1935 structure is a
masterpiece, and unlike virtually any style of contemporary residence you could name. Instead of
high ceilings, they’re low. The rooms, wide. The feeling is intimate, almost cave-like, and open to the
rushing waterfall right outside. A boulder protrudes into the living room, and throughout the building
the materials and designs echo the natural environment. The furniture is integrated into the design, not
an afterthought. The result is a slew of tangible, concrete impacts — coziness, connection, yet with
enough space to not feel claustrophobic or oppressive. It’s a work of functional art, pure and simple.

https://www.gearpatrol.com/archive/a266818/how-to-appreciate-architecture/
 ART & ARCHITECTURE APPRETIATION
Like art appreciation, there are two approaches
to architectural appreciation: You can judge it
based on the standard elements of what makes
for a good building—proportions, line, materials,
color, massing, and so on. Or you can just go
with your gut and like what you like.

As Russell Sturgis says in his 1903 book, The

Appreciation of Architecture: How to Judge
Architecture (The Baker & Taylor Company),
“Rightness is relative.” Sturgis urges his readers to
form their opinions slowly and with consideration.
“Enjoy the sight, the memory, or the study of a
noble structure without undue anxiety as to
whether [you] are right or wrong.”
