FORM
Form describes the pure ideal existence of an
architectural program.
ORDER
Order refers to architectural maneuvers including
geometry, linearity , symmetry, asymmetry etc. that
could create physical architectural entities.
DESIGN
Design was that attempt to approach perfect form
through the imposition of order.
SERVANT AND SERVED SPACE
It describes formal zoning difference between the primary
spaces of a building and the portions of a structure
reserved for mechanical equipment and ancillary use.
SOCIETY OF ROOMS
It was used to connect a plan that contains dramatic,
active architectural response between one area and
another so that there is interactive resonance.
But the rim of the silo between the silo roof and
the main gallery roof is filled with continuous
curved glass blocks allowing a "transcendent"
light to fill the silo, leaving the triangular ceiling
structure a dark void against the light.
This structure is a citation from the tetrahedral
floor and ceiling structure of the gallery.
The stair generated out of this geometry, an
almost helical form, frees itself from the rigidity
of the ceiling, only to be encompassed by the
new limit of the silo walls.
Salk Institute
Salk Institute
The extraordinary
complex of the Salk
Institute is more
beautifully and humbly
sited and executed than
can be conveyed in
photographs.
Photographs usually
express the openness and
serenity of the plaza, but
not its humanly-scaled
gesture to the site and
Pacific Ocean beyond.
The Institute is a
geometrized clearing in
the landscape, and
continually references
and expresses the
landscape - not itself or
its designer.

CONCEPT
Dominating circular and rectangular
concrete masses impart a supreme
monumentality to the building.
The architectural of the assembly
building grows out of the conception
to hold a strong essential form to give a particular
shape to the varying interiors needs, expressing
them on interiors.
He introduced a light giving element to the interiors
by giving series of columns for lights, this being a
element for Kahns design.
Light from roof is given interiors.
PARLIMAENT BUILDING AT
DACCA
Important consideration in
designing National Assembly
building was protection from
sun and rain while admitting
free circulation of air.
This is achieved by awarding
huge geometric openings at
the outer faade in the form
of triangles, rectangles, full and segmental circle
and flat arches.
The Parliament was placed at the central point of
converging smaller institutional relatives based on
similar geometry.
