	Gothic architecture and art. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		Unlike Romanesque architecture, with its stress on heavy masses and clearly delimited areas, Gothic construction, particularly in its later phase, is characterized by lightness and soaring spaces.
		The High Gothic phase of architecture was ushered in by the Cathedral of Chartres, begun after 1194 and followed in rapid succession by the cathedrals of Bourges, Reims, Amiens, and Beauvais.
		Spanish Gothic architecture of this period was also based largely on French monuments; the forms, however, were modified, as in Toledo and Burgos, in the direction of greater ornamental display, partly derived from Moorish precedents.

	Chinese architecture - HighBeam Encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		As early as the neolithic period, a basic principle of Chinese architecture was already established, wherein columns spaced at intervals, rather than walls, provided the support for the roof.
		Through the T'ang and Sung dynasties, Chinese architecture retained the basic characteristics already developed in the Han, although there was a greater technical mastery and a tendency toward rich adornment and complexity of the system of bracketing.
		In Xian, the central mosque is a perfect example of chinese design, bearing not a single feature of middle-eastern architecture prevalent in the rest of the islamic world.

	Developing Architecture Views
		As with the architecture of a building, it is normally necessary to develop multiple views of the architecture of an information system, to enable the architecture to be communicated to, and understood by, the different stakeholders in the system.
		Business Architecture views (see Developing a Business Architecture View) address the concerns of users, planners, and business managers, and focus on the functional aspects of the system from the perspective of the users of the system; that is, on what the new system is intended to do, including performance, functionality, and usability.
		It is highly desirable that an architecture description be encoded in a standard language, to enable a standard approach to the description of architecture semantics and their re-use among different tools.

		Graphical representation of the glissandi pitches in Metastasis demonstrating the correlation between the string slide formations in musical pitch and the architecture of the Philips Pavilion, originating in Xenakis’ composition and continued in the architecture of the Montreal Pavilion.
		This was no arbitrary solution, however, rather the aesthetic success rests with the underpinning sequence and it is the argument of this paper that it is the foundational proportional and mathematical bases that allow stochastic and serial process to operate fluently and in an interdisciplinary way.
		One thing I learned from architecture which is different from the way musicians work is to consider the overall shape of the composition, the way you see a building or town.

		Architecture's expanded field: finding inspiration in jellyfish and geopolitics, architects today are working within radically new frames of reference
		It is perhaps ironic that these new conceptual models are themselves deeply embedded in the history of architectural modernism, and each has already been proposed as a unifying concept at one time or another over the last two centuries.
		Finally, the idea of "program" was transformed in the first age of the avant-gardes, from its eighteenth-century meaning as a design exercise for student architects into an overriding concept that regulates and generates form according to a detailed understanding of its function.

	HDM_6_Books_Ockman
		Indeed, Bachelard would undoubtedly argue that almost everything we know about architecture as a historical discipline stands in the way of everything we can know about the poetics of dwelling.
		But precisely from the standpoint of clinging to traditional modes of thought, Bachelard’s vision of the oneiric house—influential as it has been on a certain sector of architectural discourse since the ’60s—itself seems to constitute a blind spot or epistemological obstacle.
		His radical will to question all received ideas and experience, his concept of the dynamism of the creative imagination, and his post-Newtonian philosophy of science contradict a conception of dwelling rooted in the soil of the preindustrial French countryside.

		The Math Topics for the first unit will be an introduction to the triangle in general, and the so-called Egyptian triangle, contained in the great pyramid.
		Since the Egyptian triangle contains the golden ratio, we'll introduce the ideas of ratio and proportion here, and for squaring of the circle, we must be able to find perimeters and areas of the square and the circle.
		In this course we hope to trace just two strands of his eternal golden braid, art (and architecture) and math, and sometimes connect them with strands from literature, mythology, and religion.
