ARC 322: History & Theories of Architecture (4) Fall 2016 Instructor: Dr. Yasser Mahgoub Lecture : Revision


Practice + Theory = Good Architect


Theory of Architecture • Theories generally fall into four main groups: 1. Rational, technological and constructional; 2. Material, economic and social; 3. Religious, cultural and philosophical; 4. The spirit of the age (Zeitgeist).

History

History of Theory • Antiquity • 1st century BCE, with the work of Vitruvius. • Vitruvius was a Roman writer, architect, and engineer active in the 1st century BCE. He was the most prominent architectural theorist in the Roman Empire known today, having written De architectura (known today as The Ten Books of Architecture), a treatise written in Latin and Greek on architecture, dedicated to the emperor Augustus.

Architectural Movements: Modern Architecture The Modern movement was an attempt to create a nonhistorical architecture of functionalism in which a new sense of space would be created with the help of modern materials. Believing that the 20th century had given birth to "modern man," who would need a radically new kind of architecture.

Walter Gropius

Mies Van Der Rohe




Architectural Movements: Post-Modern Architecture The postmodernist movement began in America around the 1960’s/70’s. Postmodernism began as a reaction to Modernism; Its aims extended to include 1. communicating ideas with the public 2. quoting extensively from past architectural styles, 3. Produce buildings that were sensitive to the context within which they are built. 4. Turn away from modern Functionalism which they viewed as boring, unwelcoming and unpleasant.

Architectural Movements: Deconstruction Deconstruction is a school of philosophy that originated in France in the late 1960s. It has had an enormous impact on Anglo-American criticism. "Deconstruction is not synonymous with "destruction", however. It is in fact much closer to the original meaning of the word 'analysis' itself, which etymologically means "to undo" -- a virtual synonym for "to de-construct.“ The idea was to develop buildings which show how differently from traditional architectural conventions buildings can be built without loosing their utility and still complying with the fundamental laws of physics.

Architectural Movements: Sustainable Architecture What is a sustainable building? 1. Uses key resources more efficiently – energy, water, materials and land. 2. Reduces ecological loading – greenhouse gases, ozone-depleting substances, wastes. 3. Creates healthier environments for people - to live, work and learn 4. Has lower overall lifecycle costs

Architectural Movements: Contemporary PARADIGMS IN ARCHITECTURE Biomimicry Biomimicry is the term used to describe the substances, equipment, mechanism and systems by which humans imitate natural systems and designs. There are two approaches to biomimetic designs: design → biology biology → design

Architectural Movements: Contemporary PARADIGMS IN ARCHITECTURE Kinetic Architecture This pair of Abu Dhabi towers are sheathed in a thin skin of glass—fashionable, but not ideal for the desert climate. So the architects at Aedas designed a special, secondary sun screen that deflects some of the glare without permanently blocking the views. Thanks to a series of faceted fiberglass rosettes—based on traditional Islamic mashrabiya —which open and close in response to the temperature of the facade.


Architectural Movements: Contemporary PARADIGMS IN ARCHITECTURE Parametric Parametric design is a process based on algorithmic thinking that enables the expression of parameters and rules that, together, define, encode and clarify the relationship between design intent and design response.

Relationship Matrices and Diagrams • Relationship Matrices • Relationship Diagrams Understanding relationships is a very basic and important part of architectural programming.

Dr. Yasser Mahgoub

92


Relationship Matrices Relationship matrix develop and show how various spaces relate. Every identified space is located vertically along one side of the matrix. Lines at a 45-degree angle to the end of each identified space extend to provide one cell connecting each space to every other space. A simple distinguishable code can be used to show the nature of the relationship between the spaces. Dr. Yasser Mahgoub

93


Dr. Yasser Mahgoub

94


Relationship Diagrams Small circles or “bubbles� each of which contains the name of one of the identified spaces. The bubble representing the space under consideration is drawn first, then other spaces relating to it are indicated in additional bubbles placed near the first bubble. Heavy, medium, and light-weight lines can be used as a code to indicate strong, moderate, and weak relationships. Dr. Yasser Mahgoub

What is a concept? Why is it important to have a concept in your design? How to communicate your concept? 97


Steps of the BASED Design Process • BRIEFING • Site selection, Program formulation, Data collection, Examples, ...

• Analysis • Design and Project Data analysis • Identification of Objectives

• Synthesis • Formulation of Concepts and Alternatives • Communication of Concepts

• Evaluation • Review of Alternatives • Selection of one alternative
