This structure is what I find to be the most gorgeous one in the United Kingdom, alongside the best in the world, it is a prime pillar of Gothic Architecture. A fire broke out at London's historic Palace of Westminster in 1834. resulting in burning it down to ashes. The fire provided Britain with an opportunity to replace what was seen to be an antiquated, outdated, disorganized collection of government buildings as well as to construct a Gothic Revival monument that would symbolically represent the UK's global leadership and the origins of modern democracy. (Fiederer, 2016) The Palace of Westminster Picture by Alex brown. With the help of A.W.N. Pugin, Sir Charles Barry created the current Gothic Revival structures. The cornerstone was placed in 1840, construction started in 1837, and it was completed in 1860. ( The Editors of Encyclopaedia 1998 ) This iconic structure has always fascinated me for its style, I think it is the closest Gothic revival structure to what through h...

Research Post N*1: Andrea Palladio and Palladianism.

During this break, I discovered the Palladian style in architecture whose father is Andrea Palladio. According to Richardson (2024), Pietro Andrea della Gondola (1508–1580). Palladio was regarded as the most successful architect of the sixteenth century, for which he was copied up to four centuries after his death by numerous other architects. Portrait of Palladio by Alessandro Maganza Based on what I have researched and his beautiful buildings, I think I can see why so many consider his work phenomenal, I would say that his style gives a sense of organization since it is mostly centralized, and the entrance is always in the middle for example and the essence of his work is more focused on the detail of the functional entities of the building. I think it might be linked back to the fact that he started as a mason.  According to Ewing et al (1974), t here is more to a Palladian house's tightness and appropriateness than just a sense of comfort and symmetry. It is the preva...

Research Post N*2: Site analysis/ environmental analysis

Image
 The project is set in the town of New Cornwell, Connecticut, USA. I took a screenshot from Google Earth of the area, a typical low-profile American town with great green spaces. Unfortunately, the town suffered a horrible fire that leveled it to the ground, therefore the site will only be limited by the street. The site will only be limited  by three roads; Shunpike for the west elevation, Sanford Ln for the north, and Alexander Dr for the east.  Here is a bird's view of the site, it is basically a rectangle that is 140m large (north and south elevations) and 160m long.  At first, I thought about making the north part 120m. However, that will make the arches too circular, because the distance between the columns is too long, I will discuss these decisions further in the next posts.     Weather : Summertime temperatures in Cromwell range from a pleasant 10-15 degrees Celsius at night to a warm 25–30 degrees Celsius during the day. I think the weather is gre...
