ENFRAMING ...challenges him to bring forth, to reveal the real, in the mode of ordering... -martin heidigger

enframing closes and opens space and structures our experience of the built world. architecture can act as a frame, or it can be framed by the world around it.

CONSTRUCTED SPACES AND GEOMETRY SACRED AND SECULAR TYPES Beauty will result from the form and the correspondence of the whole, with respect to the several parts, of the parts with regard to each other, and of these again to the whole; that the structure may appearan entire and complete body, wherein each member agrees with the other, and all necessary to compose what you intend to form. -andrea palladio

volumes are organized into specific named forms like the villa, baptistry, and basilica.

BUILDING AND LANDSCAPE Catherine’s face was just like the landscape--shadows and sunshine flitting over it in rapid succession; but the shadows rested longer, and the sunshine was more transient... - emily bronte, wuthering heights

patterns are made in the interactions between a structure and its siting. harmonies, varieties, and dissonances.

FIGURATION It was stated‌that the value of architecture depended on two distinct characters:—the one, the impression it receives from human power; the other, the image it bears of the natural creation. -ruskin, seven lamps of architecture

architecture demands to be occupied by the figure, but it can be figurative as well. the silhouette of a tower against the sky acts as a woman backlit in the sunlight.

Then I sit down, work at it, because now I have a convincing feeling about what that place wants to be, you see? And it’s not just me. Me and my talent comes in taking that consensus and then making something wonderful out of it - a work of art. -lawrence halprin
