Module Seven - Blog: Video Review


1. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.

*Architecture: The Science of Design:
The key concepts I learned was how the video explain architecture as being art, and gravity or wind effect on buildings. Also, wind tunnel testing is applied to enhance the building from collapsing.

Classical Architecture:
The key concepts I learned is how classic style of Rome and Greek are still being used today in architecture. Also, Palladian's architectural influence in Britain

2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?

* The video related to the reading in the text in a way that both describes the three style of architecture used by the Rome and Greek and how it has influence modern day architecture. The textbook explains it in depth while the video gives a lot of visuals.

3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of Architecture?

* The videos gave me a visual on architecture by showing classic architectural constructions from ancient Greek and Rome. Also, add depth to how architects construct a building and to secure the buildings strength to last.

4. Why did you choose the films that you watched?

* I choose this films because the title Architecture: The science of design and classical Architectural caught my attention and i was interested in seeing what the video reveals about architecture especially the classical aspect.
