Interesting Facts
Form Line Balance Repetition Shape Texture
Elements and Principals of design
Shape And DimensionSydney Opera House-The
sails are like triangles. Uses organic shapes. 3D shapes. Dynamic-The sails look like their moving. There is a lot
of positive space .
Other Buildings-Geometric-Every building, he has at
least 2 geometric shapes. He uses positive space and leaves very little negative space. Obviously there are
3D shapes and no 2D shapes. They are static and
dynamic.
Shape and Dimension; Mathematical Concepts
Mathematical ConceptsSydney Opera House-There are many lines.There is pattern and repetition because the sails keep on repeating.Sails are again like triangles.
Other Buildings-patterns, In the Kuwait National Assembly the cylinders keep on repeating. Symmetry-All of his buildings are asymmetrical. Geometric shapes- In his buildings(Excluding the Sydney opera house) he uses geometric shapes. To make the building look complete.
There is asymmetrical balance. Form Line Shape-Organic and geometric
Cool Features- There are invisible pillars made of transparent
