Architecture From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Architecture portal This article is about the built environment . For other uses of the term "Architecture" see Architecture (disambiguation) Architecture (in Greek = first and = craftsmanship) is the art and science of designing buildings and structures. A wider definition would include within its scope the design of the total built environment, from the macrolevel of town planning urban design , and landscape architecture to the microlevel of furniture The Parthenon on top of the Acropolis Athens Greece Contents Scope and intentions Theory and practice Architecture and buildings Architectural history ... edit Scope and intentions According to the very earliest surviving work on the subject, Vitruvius De Architectura , good buildings should have Beauty (Venustas), Firmness (Firmitas) and Utility (Utilitas); architecture can be said to be a balance and coordination among these three elements, with none overpowering the others. A modern day definition sees architecture as addressing aesthetic, structural and functional considerations. However, looked at another way, function itself is seen as encompassing all criteria, including aesthetic and psychological ones. Architecture is a multi-disciplinary field, including within its fold

Yale-New Haven Teachers Institute Home Looking At History Through Architecture by Patricia Gaffney Ansel Contents of Curriculum Unit 83.01.04: Narrative Colonial 1638-1820 1790-1820 The Federalist Period Architectural History ... To Guide Entry The unit is divided into four major periods of architectural styles. They are in chronological order and serve as the basis for a time line which will be embellished by the accompanying narrative of historical events of the period. It is necessary to say here that the dates I have used to describe the four architectural periods were determined by Carole Rifkind in A Field Guide American Architecture. Although, I have taken the liberty to begin the Colonial Period in 1638 when the New Haven Colony was founded. They are difficult, if not impossible, to fix precisely because no one period ended abruptly for another to begin. Therefore, the dates may seem general and overlapping was unavoidable. Few structures are “pure” in their architectural style, having borrowed from many influences. Most do reflect a dominant style in their design. But these are not points to belabor, better to present a picture of the on-going process of change and give the students a sense of their part in the continuum. I have included information meant to capture the imagination, perhaps the students will be able to see themselves in the situations described. Rather than targeting rote memory, my objectives are to develop skills in observation and description, to create an understanding of the relationships of one part of history to another.

48. HTC At MIT Unlike other architectural history departments in schools of architecture, HTC includes art historians on its permanent faculty and offers both a Ph.D. and http://architecture.mit.edu/htc/

Our graduate alumni have consistently obtained positions in the field in which they have been trained. See where they teach now. See list of recent faculty awards. WELCOME Critical Perspectives The goal of the HTC program is to prepare students for an intellectual life in universities, in architecture schools, and in architectural practice. Emphasis is placed simultaneously on critical method and historical substance. Students are encouraged to identify research projects that are relevant to their own concerns and allow them to reflect on contemporary issues. At the same time, the program demands rigorous historical scholarship. It is this combination, we believe, that leads to real change in the ways we think about art and architecture and write their history. HTC is a unique program in American education. Its location within the oldest school of architecture in the U.S. focuses attention on interdisciplinary issues in contemporary practice and distinguishes it from the art history departments of universities. A number of the HTC faculty have professional degrees as well as academic ones and this contributes to the interaction of practice and scholarship that is unique to this environment. Alone among the graduate programs in architecture schools, HTC hosts a substantial curriculum in art history. Its theoretical and critical orientation constitutes an important part of the education of all the students in the program.

In general, the question is one of relating meaning (intangible functions, purposes, symbols) with the built environment (material tables, windows, roofs, paths) through the necessities of life (food, work, communion etc.) within the historical context. Architectural history, like any other form of historical knowledge, is subject to the limitations and potentialities of history as a discipline . Consequently there have been a wide range of perspectives in the study of architecture, most of them Western. In the 19th century , architecture of the past was understood from a formal perspective, emphasizing the morphological characteristics of form, technique and materials. This period also saw the emergence of the individual architect, the amalgamation of whose conscious intentions would become the subject of artistic movements. In these respects, architectural history is a subdiscipline of

Many of its important buildings figure prominently in the oeuvres of leading American architects: Latrobe, Robert Mills, Maximilien Godefroy, Richard Upjohn, Stanford White, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe among them. Yet Baltimore's distinctive urban environment also owes much to the achievements of local talents, including Robert Cary Long Sr. and Jr., John Rudolph Niernsee and James Crawford Neilson, E.

The Newport Casino was commissioned in 1880 by James Gordon Bennett, who hired the architectural firm of McKim, Mead and White to design and build the facility. McKim, Mead and White was the premier architectural firm of the late 19th and early 20th century, and the Newport Casino was one of the firm's earliest projects. Stanford White has often been credited with the design of the Casino, however, recognition must also go to Charles McKim, who was responsible for capturing the symmetry and balance of the Bellevue Avenue facade The term "shingle-style" refers to a late 19th century style of architecture, which was domestic, asymmetrical and relative to its natural setting. Shingles and colonial motifs were used as a deliberate attempt to create an image based on indigenous precedents. McKim, Mead and White were considered the torchbearers of this search for American architectural style. Using the early American architecture throughout New England, it was natural that the Casino would have such Colonial elements as the dark wooden shingles, the elaborately turned balustrade of the entrance hall stairway, the steeply pitched gables and second story overhang - all reminiscent of the great Puritan homes of Massachusetts.

The specialization area in the History and Theory of Architecture is concerned with a critical examination of the record of architectural development from the earliest times to the present. It provides for the development of new knowledge and methods for promoting critical inquiry into the history and theory of architecture and producing informed insights into the varied factors and influences that have shaped design decisions over time. This specialization area takes a comprehensive approach to architectural history and theory, viewing them both as independent and interdependent facets of the discipline of architecture. By examining and discriminating among the various methodologies and points of view that attempt to describe and explain knowledge about architecture, students become better equipped to determine the appropriate method or approach to be adopted in their inquiry into the history and theory of architecture.
