Architecture and tecnique

Architecture is the supreme process of creation and full of intrinsic values. It can be considered as one of the most noble disciplines of art it is a sincere representation of man’s capacity to create beauty, space and his dreams. In architecture there are two ways to be truthful: in terms of the program and in terms of construction. Through construction we can express and transmit our artistic values, but also we express ourselves through architecture. To be truthful in the construction techniques is to use the materials according to their qualities and properties. No matter how stunning a residence or building is, it’s the way its details are integrated into the overall design that really sets it apart.

Tecnology

As humanity continues evolving their techniques and technology also evolves as we can see in the history of architecture lso the engineer continues helping to simplify the way of transportation and the way of making mixtures mor efficient in order to the building endure more than it seeems.

By the Roman Construction system, the Roman Empire was built. The basic elements are: vaults and domes, arches and shutterings to form the massive walls and columns of our famous ruins. Their use was common in other early civilizations as well, but none have matched their magnificence and power. The Roman buildings made their special place in the world of architecture by the outstanding organization of construction, planning and material. Some buildings were built directly with stone blocks and mortar, but many others were made of soft materials such as wood or even clay.

The Romans did not make roofs out of solid materials such as metal or glass; instead they made them out of materials such as shingles or tiles that could be easily replaced if they were damaged.
