In this lesson i learned that buildings represent a form of communication, a language, therefore in their own way they have vocabularies, syntax, and evolve into forms taking basis in the old ones or contrasting them. A building that reaches to contain communication in themselves and express them gently and elegantly are considered good architecture. Architects may communicate concerns through buildings by emphasising some forms and suppressing others. They have several ways architects use to communicate: visual communication which includes light direction, strength, and colour is the primary and clearest form of perception. After that comes temperature, humidity and texture. The image that the building communicates is crucial because the image influences the attitude and behavior of the users of the building. The architect should formulate a hierarchical list depending on the importance of the concepts to the users of the building. Next comes choosing the design technique and then ...

In terms of senses we classify types of design as visual, auditory and audiovisual. 1.Visual, static, surface design is a two dimensional design, sometimes slightly curved or in the form of a polyhedral surface. The basic elements of this design are colour,  line, and texture. This design has three subcategories. -Strip design : long and narrow, is is extended mostly in one dimension lengthwise as in ribbons. borders, and architectural mouldings. This type of design can give an illusion of a 3D design. - Bounded-area design is a design limited within a 2D given area. This type can also be flat or slightly three dimensional as i paintings. it can be asymmetrical, irregular, and free-flowing suggesting moods attitudes. - Allover design is unbounded in two dimensions with a tendency to indefinite repetition or prolongation in two dimensions and four directions. In this type of design units are not arranged along a single main axis but they flow allover the background. this ty...
